- An airline charges the following baggage fees: $30 for the first bag and $35 for the second. Suppose 28% of passengers have no checked luggage, 54% have only one piece of checked luggage and 18% have two pieces. We suppose a negligible portion of people check more than two bags.

Download and open in Excel for the formulas to work and show properly, and to copy/paste the sheet.a) The average baggage-related revenue per passenger is: $ ______________ (round to nearest cent)b) The standard deviation of baggage-related revenue is: $ ______________ (round to nearest cent)c) About how much revenue should the airline expect for a flight of 130 passengers? $ ____________ (round to nearest dollar)arrow_forwardOne morning Dave sent copies of an email message to Alvin, Simon, and Theodore that said the following: “You are one of my dearest friends. If you care about me, send a copy of this letter to two of your dearest friends tomorrow. If you do not break this chain, you will live long and prosper.” The boys followed the directions: the next day they each sent a copy of the message to two of their dearest friends (other than each other). The following day, each of the recipients did the same. Count the day Dave sent the three original messages as the first day, and assume the chain is unbroken. A. How many copies of the message will be sent on the fifth day? B.
