On one busy holiday weekend, a national airline has many requests for standby flights at half of the usual one-way air fare. However, past experience has shown that these passengers have only about a 1 in 5 chance of getting on the standby flight. When they fail to get on a flight as a standby, their only other choice is to fly first class on the next flight out. Suppose that the usual one-way air fare to a certain city is $100 and the cost of flying first class is $490. Should a passenger who wishes to fly to this city opt to fly as a standby? [Hint: Find the expected cost of the trip for a person flying standby.]

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
