Allegiant Airlines charges a mean base fare of $85. In addition, the airline charges for making a reservation on its website, checking bags, and inflight beverages. These additional charges average $37 per passenger. Suppose a random sample of 80 passengers is taken to determine the total cost of their flight on Allegiant Airlines. The population standard deviation of total flight cost is known to be $39. Use z-table.
(a) What is the population mean cost per flight?
(b) What is the probability the sample mean will be within $10 of the population mean cost per flight (to 4 decimals)?
(c) What is the probability the sample mean will be within $5 of the population mean cost per flight (to 4 decimals)?

(a) The population mean cost per flight is $122.

(b) The probability the sample mean will be within $10 of the population mean cost per flight is 0.9971.

(c) The probability the sample mean will be within $5 of the population mean cost per flight is 0.8638.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = the additional cost charged by the Allegiant Airlines.

The mean additional cost charged per passenger is, = $37.

The population standard deviation of the additional cost charged per passenger is, σ = $39.

A sample of n = 80 passengers is selected to determine the total cost of their flight on Allegiant Airlines.

(a)

The law of large numbers, in probability concept, states that as we increase the sample size (n), the mean of the sample () approaches the whole population mean (µ).

That is, as n → ∞, → µ.

The sample selected is of size, n = 80. The sample size is quite large.

So the sample mean cost of additional charges can be used to  estimate the value of the population mean cost of additional charges.

Compute the total cost as follows:

Total cost = Base fare + Mean cost of additional charges

                = $85 + $37

                = $122

Thus, the population mean cost per flight is $122.

(b)

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and we take appropriately huge random samples (n ≥ 30) from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample mean will be approximately normally distributed.

Then, the mean of the distribution of sample mean is given by,

And the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is given by,

Compute the probability the sample mean will be within $10 of the population mean as follows:

The sample mean be within $10 of the population mean implies:

Compute the probability as follows:

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability the sample mean will be within $10 of the population mean cost per flight is 0.9971.

(c)

Compute the probability the sample mean will be within $5 of the population mean cost per flight as follows:

The sample mean be within $5 of the population mean implies:

Compute the probability as follows:

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability the sample mean will be within $5 of the population mean cost per flight is 0.8638.

step-by-step explanation:

81 seats

step-by-step explanation:

if you multiply 0.65 times 125 then you get 81.5 seats. well since you can't have half of a seat you have to round down and get 81 seats in the no children zones. that leave 44 seats outside of the no children zone.
