Air America has a policy of booking as many as 15 persons on an airplane that can seat only 14. (Past studies have revealed that only 85% of the booked passengers actually arrive for the flight.) Find the probability that if Air America books 15 persons, there will be enough seats will be available.

The probability that if Air America books 15 persons, there will be enough seats available is 0.913.

How to determine the probability?

First of all, we would determine the probability that if Air America books 15 persons, there won't be enough seats available by using binomial distribution:

P(x = 15) = 0.85¹⁵

P(x = 15) = 0.087.

Based on logic, the probability that if Air America books 15 persons, there will be enough seats available is given by:

P = 1 - 0.087

P = 0.913.
