An airport limousine can accommodate up to four passengers on any one trip. The company will accept a maximum of six reservations for a trip, and a passenger must have a reservation. From previous records, 40% of all those making reservations do not appear for the trip.
Suppose the
What is the probability mass

Transcribed Image Text:(c) Suppose the probability distribution of the number of reservations made is given in the accompanying table.
Number of reservations
3
4
6
Probability
0.15
0.25
0.34
0.26
Expert Solution

Step 1
Given : 40% of all those making reservations do not appear for the trip.
Since , the probability distribution table is given below ,
Number of reservation (x) | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | Total |
P(X=x) | 0.15 | 0.25 | 0.34 | 0.26 | 1.00 |
Our aim is to find the probability mass function of X= 1,2,3,4
