Based on data from the National Health Survey, women between the ages of 18 and 24 have an average systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) of 114.8 with a standard deviation of 13.1. Systolic blood pressure for women between the ages of 18 to 24 follow a normal distribution. a. If one woman from this population is randomly selected, find the probability that her systolic blood pressure is greater than 120. b. If 40 women from this population are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean systolic blood pressure greater than 120. C. If the sample were four women between the ages of 18 to 24 and we did not know the original distribution, could the central limit theorem be used?

The population of weights for men attending a local health club is normally distributed with a mean of 184-lbs and a standard deviation of 28-lbs. An elevator in the health club is limited to 32 occupants, but it will be overloaded if the total weight is in excess of 6240-lbs.Assume that there are 32 men in the elevator. What is the average weight beyond which the elevator would be considered overloaded?average weight = lbsWhat is the probability that one randomly selected male health club member will exceed this weight?P(one man exceeds) = (Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)If we assume that 32 male occupants in the elevator are the result of a random selection, find the probability that the evelator will be overloaded?P(elevator overloaded) = (Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)If the evelator is full (on average) 2 times a day, how many times will the evelator be overloaded in one (non-leap) year?number of times overloaded = (Report answer rounded to the nearest…
