Probability of more than 3 passengers who do not show up for a flight:

a)the area to the right of 3.5
b)the area to the left of 2.5
c)the area to the right of 2.5
d)the area to the left of 3.5
e)the area between 2.5 and 3.5

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a)the area to the right of 3.5 

That's the correct choice, the probability that there are more 
than 3 passengers who do not show up for a flight.

--------------------

 b)the area to the left of 2.5

That's the probability that there are fewer than 3 passengers 
who do not show up for a flight. 

--------------------
 
 c)the area to the right of 2.5

That's the probability that there are more than 2 passengers 
who do not show up for a flight.

-------------------- 
 
 d)the area to the left of 3.5

That's the probability that there are fewer than 4 passengers 
who do not show up for a flight.

--------------------

 e)the area between 2.5 and 3.5

That's the probability that there are EXACTLY 3 passengers 
who do not show up for a flight.
