Chapter 1, Problem 5D

Explanation of Solution

The python program in the section 1.6 is given below.

Program code: “chaos.py”

# A simple program illustrating chaotic behavior.

#define main function

def main():

  #print the statement

  print ("This program illustrates a chaotic function")

#accept the value for x from users

x = eval(input("Enter a number between 0 and 1: "))

#iterate a for loop

for i in range(10):

  #calculate the value of x

  x = 3.9 * x * (1 - x)

  #print the value of x

  print (x)

#call the main function

main()

Explanation:

The above program code is used to illustrate the chaotic function. In the code,

  • The “main()” function is defined.
    • A statement is printed.
  • A variable “x” is declared and accepted the values from the user.
  • A “for” loop is executed.
    • The value of “x” is changed.
    • The value of “x” is printed on the screen...

Southern Airline has 15 daily flights from Miami to New York.  Each flight requires two pilots.  Flights that do not have two pilots are canceled (passengers are transferred to other airlines).  The average profit per flight is $6000.  Because pilots get sick from time to time, the airline is considering a policy of keeping four *reserve pilots on standby to replace sick pilots.  Such pilots would introduce an additional cost of $1800 per reserve pilot (whether they fly or not). The pilots on each flight are distinct and the likelihood of any pilot getting sick is independent of the likelihood of any other pilot getting sick.  Southern believes that the probability of any given pilot getting sick is 0.15.  A) Run a simulation of this situation with at least 1000 iterations and report the following for the present policy (no reserve pilots) and the proposed policy (four reserve pilots): The average daily utilization of the aircraft (percentage of total flights that fly) The…
