05 A small airline runs commuter flights with a plane that holds 10 people. Each ticket-holder has a 10% chance of not showing up, so the airline sells 12 tickets for each flight. Which is an appropriate plan for a simulation that uses a table of random digits to estimate the probability that exactly ten people show up for the flight? a) Let digit pairs 01-12 represent the 12 tickets. In the table, select pairs of digits, ignoring repeats and pairs that do not represent a ticket. Continue until you get 10 seats filled. Record the number of pairs needed to get 10 seats filled. b) Let digit pairs 01-12 represent the 12 tickets. In the table, select pairs of digits until you find10 pairs that represent tickets and record the proportion of trials that required ten or fewer. c) Let digit pairs 01-12 represent a seat that was 05 filled, and other pairs represent a seat that was not filled. In the table, select 10 pairs of digits, ignor- ing repeats, and record the number of seats that were filled. d) Let digit 0 represent a seat that was filled, and 1-9 a seat that was not filled. In the table, select 10 digits and record the number of seats that were filled.e) Let digit 0 represent a ticket-holder that doesn't show up, and 1-9 a ticket-holder who shows up. Select 12 digits and record the number of passengers who show up
