A small airline runs commuter flights with a plane that holds 10 people. Each ticket holder has a 10% chance of not showing up, so the airline sells 12 tickets for each flight.
What is the single component to be simulated?Hint: What were were sold for each flight?

A small airline runs commuter flights with a plane that holds 10 people. Each ticket holder has a 10% chance of not showing up (1 out of 10), so the airline sells 12 tickets for each flight.
How will you simulate trials?Hint: how will you use a random number table to simulate a trial of 12 passengers/ticket holders?

Use the 'show your work' section to run three trials.Use the random number list, fill in the table, give the three percentages of ticket holders that kept their reservations out of the 12 and calculate the average % of ticket holders that keep their reservations.
Be sure to use the top three rows: one row for each trial.

Using the information from your simulation, give your conclusion below. Use: My simuation indicates that...
HInt: make sure to use 'wiggle room' words (or weasel words), your simulation DOES NOT show exactly how many passengers will not show up for the flight, it shows 'about' how many.I will grade this question.

A small airline runs commuter flights with a plane that holds 10 people. Each ticket holder has a 10% chance of not showing up, so the airline sells 12 tickets for each flight.
Now that you've done the simulation and calculated the average %, do you think over selling the seats by 2 is a reasonable idea?Why or why not?

A newly married couple agrees that they want to have children. The husband wants to have at least one son, and the wife wants to have at least one daughter. They are interested in finding how many children they can expect to have before having one boy and one girl.
Assume the probability of having a son is 50% and a daughter is 50%.
To build a simulation, what would the component be?

Assume the probability of having a son is 50% and a daughter is 50%.
Use the show your work area and the random numbers provided to run 5 trials.
Explain your method, tell when you will stop and if repeats are ok.Demonstrate your method and give the results from the trials
Be sure to use the top 5 rows: one row for each trial.

State your conclusion:My simuation indicates that...
HInt: make sure to use 'wiggle room' words (or weasel words), your simulation DOES NOT show exactly how many children the couple is predited to have. It shows 'about' how many.I will grade this question.
