At a certain high school, the distribution of backpack weight is approximately normal with mean 19.7 pounds and standard deviation 3.1 pounds. A random sample of 5 backpacks will be selected, and the weight, in pounds, of each backpack will be recorded. For samples of size 5, which of the following is the best interpretation of P(ã > 22) × 0.05? A The probability that each of the 5 backpacks selected will have a weight above 22 pounds is approximately 0.05. B The probability that each of the 5 backpacks selected will have a weight above 19.7 pounds is approximately 0.05. C The probability that the population mean is greater than 22 pounds is approximately 0.05. For all samples of size 5, approximately 5% of the sample will have a probability greater than 22 pounds. E For all samples of size 5, the probability that the sample mean will be greater than 22 pounds is approximately 0.05.

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for the airplane. The seat was designed for pilots weighing between 150 and 191 pounds. The new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 158 pounds and a standard deviation or 31.1 pounds. a. If a pilot is randomly selected, find the probability that his weight is between 150 lb and 191 lb. b. If 38 pilots are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight is between 150 lb and 191 lb. what is the approximate probability? c. When redesigning the ejection seat, which probability is more relevant? part b because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important part b because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important Part a because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important part a because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. please show solving steps and if possible tell me how to also get these answers through excel…

Suppose that the distribution of the grades of students in MAPEH performance 1 is roughly normally distributed with a mean of 85 and a standard deviation of 5 a. Between what values do we expect the grades of the middle 68% of the MAPEH students in performance 1 lie? b. Suppose you randomly select 16 MAPEH students, find the probability that the average grades of these students is at least 86. c. A MAPEH student whose grades lies in the upper 1% of the distribution (inclusive of the 1% cutoff) is considered extremely performing in Performance 1. Can you say that Jazzer, a randomly selected student who obtained a grade of 95, is one of those who performed extremely in Performance 1?
