According to flightstats.com, American Airlines flights from Dallas to Chicago are on time 80% of the time. Suppose 25 flights are randomly selected, and the number of on-time flights is recorded. (a) Explain why this is a binomial experiment. (b) Determine the values of n and p. (c) Find and interpret the probability that exactly 16 flights are on time. (d) Find and interpret the probability that fewer than 16 flights are on time. (e) Find and interpret the probability that at least 16 flights are on time. (f) Find and interpret the probability that between 14 and 16 flights, inclusive, are on time. (a) Identify the statements that explain why this is a binomial experiment. Select all that apply. A. The experiment is performed a fixed number of times. B. The probability of success is different for each trial of the experiment. C. The experiment is performed until a desired number of successes are reached. D. The trials are independent. E. Each trial depends on the previous trial. F. There are three mutually exclusive possible outcomes, arriving on-time, arriving early, and arriving late. G. The probability of success is the same for each trial of the experiment. H. There are two mutually exclusive outcomes, success (plane arrives on time) or failure (plane does not arrive on time). (b) Using the binomial distribution, determine the values of n and p. n= (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) p= (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) (c) Using the binomial distribution, the probability that exactly 16 flights are on time is . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
