Question
The following set of random numbers represents 20 simulations of three daily flights from Philadelphia to Seattle, with 0, 1, 2, or 3 representing a late departure and 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 representing an on-time departure. In how many of the simulations was there an on-time departure for all three flights?506 619 535 769 096 380 527 555 737 192 092 658 691 320 442 812 968 763 374 282A.4B.5C.3D.6
Solution
To answer this question, we need to count the number of simulations where all three flights departed on time. According to the question, numbers 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 represent on-time departures.
Let's go through each simulation:
- 506 - Late, On-time, On-time
- 619 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 535 - On-time, On-time, Late
- 769 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 096 - Late, Late, On-time
- 380 - Late, On-time, Late
- 527 - On-time, Late, On-time
- 555 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 737 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 192 - On-time, Late, Late
- 092 - Late, Late, On-time
- 658 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 691 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 320 - Late, Late, Late
- 442 - Late, Late, Late
- 812 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 968 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 763 - On-time, On-time, On-time
- 374 - Late, On-time, Late
- 282 - Late, Late, Late
From the above, we can see that there are 8 simulations where all three flights departed on time. So, none of the options A, B, C, or D is correct.
