Expert Solution
Step 1

(a). Obtain the probability that all the people who reserve the seat online will join the workshop:

It is given that the Alphabet institute organizes workshop for a maximum of 35 people.

The organization allows reservation for 10% more than their maximum capacity.

That is, the number of reservations will be 35 + (10% of 35) = 35 + 3.5 = 39.

It is given that, 9% of people will cancel their seats.

Consider the event that the people cancel their seat as a “success”. The probability of success in each trial is p = 0.09. Then q = 1 – 0.09 = 0.91.

To allocate all the people, 4 people should cancel their seats.

Consider X as the number of people who cancel their seats. Then, X has a Binomial distribution with parameters (n = 39, p = 0.09).

The probability that all the people who reserve the seat online will join the workshop is 0.1989 from the calculation given below:

Probability homework question answer, step 1, image 1

Thus, the probability that all the people who reserve the seat online will join the workshop is 0.1989.

Step 2

(b). Obtain the probability that out of selected people at least 2 will not show up:

The probability that out of selected people at least 2 will not show up is 0.23246 from the calculation given below:

Probability homework question answer, step 2, image 1

Thus, the probability that out of selected people at least 2 will not show up is 0.23246.
