An elevator has a placard stating that the maximum capacity is 1860 Ib-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 overloa because they have a mean weight greater than 155 Ib. (Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 161 lb and a standard deviation of 31 lb.) Does this elevator appear to be safe? The probability the elevator is overloaded is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) Does this elevator appear to be safe? O A. Yes, there is a good chance that 12 randomly selected people will not exceed the elevator capacity. O B. No, there is a good chance that 12 randomly selected adult male passengers will exceed the elevator capacity. OC. No, 12 randomly selected people will never be under the weight limit. OD. Yes, 12 randomly selected adult male passengers will always be under the weight limit

Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 238 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 142.4 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 175.45 cm and a standard deviation of 5.59 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme? ... Since the z score for the tallest man is z = 0 and the z score for the shortest man is z = the man had the height that was Im- more extreme. (Round to two decimal places.) shortest tallest
An elevator has a placard stating that the maximum capacity is 4400 lb-29 passengers. So, 29 adult male passengers can have a mean weight of up to 4400/29 = 152 pounds. Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 180 lb and a standard deviation of 29 lb. a. Find the probability that 1 randomly selected adult male has a weight greater than 152 lb. b. Find the probability that a sample of 29 randomly selected adult males has a mean weight greater than 152 lb. c. What do you conclude about the safety of this elevator? a. The probability that 1 randomly selected adult male has a weight greater than 152 lb is ☐ (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
The Boeing 157-200 ER aircraft carries 200 passengers and has doors with a height of 72 inches. Male heights are normally distributed with a mean of 67.4 inches and a standard deviation of 3.8 inches. 1.
