14 A fair four-sided die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4. A coin is biased so that the probability of tossing heads is . The die is thrown once and the number n that it lands on is recorded. The biased coin is then thrown (n + 2) times. So, for example, if the die lands on 3, the coin is thrown 5 times.
14 (a) Find the probability that the die lands on 4 and the coin shows heads 4 times.

16 (b) A commercial airline reports that two in every thirty of its passengers do not turn up to their flight, and therefore the airline routinely overbooks their flights. An investigative journalist disputes the airline’s claims, believing that the proportion is much lower. The journalist picks 50 scheduled passengers at random and finds that one passenger failed to turn up their flight.
Investigate the journalist’s claims at the 5% level of significance.
