An elevator has a placard stating that the maximum capacity is 2400 lb-15 passengers. So, 15 adult male passengers can have a mean weight of up to 2400/15 = 160 pounds. If the elevator is
loaded with 15 adult male passengers, find the probability that it is overloaded because they have a mean weight greater than 160 lb. (Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a
mean of 169 lb and a standard deviation of 31 lb.) Does this elevator appear to be safe?
