Suppose an airline found that about 7% of the people making reservations on a flight from Miami to Denver do not show up for the flight. Suppose that the airline overbooks this flight by selling 226 ticket reservations for an airplane with only 219 seats. Let n = 226 represent the number of ticket reservations. Let r represent the number of people with reservations who show up for the flight. Which expression represents the probability that a seat will be available for everyone who shows up holding a reservation: Expression I : P(r ≥ 226) Expression II : P(r ≥ 219) Expression III : P(r ≤ 226) Expression IV : P(r ≤ 219) Expression V : P(r = 219) a. Expression II b. Expression III c. Expression I d. Expression V e. Expression IV
