For each day that Sasha travels to work, the probability that she will experience a delay due to traffic is 0.2. Each day can be considered independent of the other days. In the question, What is the probability that Sasha’s first delay due to traffic will occur after the fifth day of work travel? Why is it that the answer is 0.32768? How did we get the solution?

A company offers guided tours of remote areas of the world. Each tour consists of 20 people. The probability of selling a ticket for any given spot on the tour is 0.86. The costs to the company are approximately the same regardless of the number of people that show up. To offset the risk associated with a tour not filling up, the company purchases a specialized insurance policy. The policy pays 100 for each ticket that is left unsold, up to a maximum of 400. Let P be the amount that the insurance policy pays to the company for a specific tour. Calculate E[P] to the nearest dollar. O 251 O244 O 259 O 267 275
