An elevator has a placard stating that the maximum capacity is 1824 Ib-12 passengers, So, 12 adult male passengers can have a mean weight of up to 1824/ 12 = 152 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 152 lb. (Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 161 lb and a standard deviation of 34 Ib) Does this elevator appear to be safe? The probability the elevator is ovarloaded is Q8143 (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
