On a given Dallas-New York flight, there are 300 seats. Suppose the tícket price is $450 and the number of passengers who reserve a seat but do not show up for departure is normally distributed with mean 40 and standard deviation 14. You decide to overbook the flight and estimate that the net cost of an involuntary boarding denial (if the number of passengers exceeds the number of seats) is $900 (everything considered). The optimal number of reservations that you should accept (rounded to the nearest integer) is: 328 O6 334 340 346

In a random sample of 500 teenagers 12 to 17 years old, it was found that 330 have regular access to computers and the Internet. Find a point estimate of the true proportion of teenagers 12 to 17 years old who have regular access to computers and the Internet.
The distribution of heights of adult men is approximately normal with mean 69 inches and standard deviation 2.5 inches. Bob's height has a Z-score of -2.5 when compared to all adult men. In 1-2 sentences, interpret what this Z score tells about how Bob compares to other men in terms of height.
Pyramid Lake is on the Paiute Indian Reservation in Nevada. The lake is famous for cutthroat trout. Suppose a friend tells you that the average length of trout caught in Pyramid Lake is ? = 19 inches. However, a survey reported that of a random sample of 51 fish caught, the mean length was x = 18.6 inches, with estimated standard deviation s = 2.9 inches. Do these data indicate that the average length of a trout caught in Pyramid Lake is less than ? = 19 inches? Use ? = 0.05. i-What is the value of the sample test statistic?
