ABA airlines never likes to fly a plane with an empty seat. The flight is from ATL to St. Croix can hold 200 passengers. Past data has shown that 5% of passengers never show for a flight. As a result ABA likes to overbook its flights so that there are no empty seats. What is the largest number of passengers ABA should book so that there is at least a 95% chance that everyone who shows up will get on the plane? Assume that passengers are independent of each other and there is a 5% chance each passenger DOES NOT show up and a 95% chance each passenger DOES show up.
