b. A coach has 44 seats. The travel agency has found, from past experience, that on average 10% of people with tickets for a particular journey will not turn up. Let X be the random variable represents the number of absentee. If the travel agency sells 48 tickets for a particular journey, find the probability that more than 44 people turn up for the journey.
