An elevator has a placard stating that the maximum capacity is 1860 lb—12 passengers. So, 12 adult male passengers can have a mean weight of up to 1860/12=155 pounds. If the elevator is loaded with 12 adult male passengers, find the probability that it is overloaded because they have a mean weight greater than 155 lb. (Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 162 lb and a standard deviation of 31 lb.) The probability the elevator is overloaded is
The advertised fuel economy of the 2020 Toyota Camry model with 4 cylinders and a 2.5 liter engine is 34 miles per gallon (mpg). The observed fuel economy among drivers of that vehicle is slightly lower. The distribution of those values is approximately normal with a mean mpg is 33.5. When a model of this vehicle is randomly selected, the probability that its mpg is 2.8 standard deviations above the mean is 0.39. Find the probability a randomly selected model of this vehicle has mpg 2.8 standard deviations below the mean. Express the answer as a decimal value rounded to the nearest hundredth. Pay attention to the side of the diagram you make.
The restaurant in a large commercial building provides coffee for the building’s occupants. The restaurateur has determined that the mean number of cups of coffee consumed per day by all the occupants is 2.0 with a standard deviation of 0.6. A new tenant of the building intends to have a total of 125 new employees. What is the probability that the new employees will consume more than 240 cups per day?
An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. The seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130 lb and 191 lb. The new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 136 lb and a standard deviation of 34.9 lb a. If a pilot is randomly selected find the probability that his weight is between 130 lb and 191 lb.

A semi-truck can transport a maximum of 14,950 pounds. Suppose that a load of cargo containing 115 boxes needs to be transported via this semi-truck. Research has shown that the weights of boxes for this type of cargo have a distribution that has a population mean weight of 125 pounds and a population standard deviation of 20 pounds. Based on this information, what is the probability that all 115 boxes can be safely loaded into the semi-truck and transported?
