Suppose thousands of  passengers fly on an airplane and the average weight of all passengers is 78 with 
standard deviation 7 

Suppose passenger 1 has a weight of 106.7

Suppose passenger 2 has a weight of 51.4

Suppose passenger 3 has a weight of 82.9

Pick 3 of the correct choices given below 

a.
passenger 1 has a weight of 106.70000  so their zscore is 38.95000 this weight must be unusually high
b.
Suppose passenger 3 has a weight of 82.90000 so there zscore is 6.65100 so the weight is unusually high
c.
passenger 2 has a weight of 51.40000  so their zscore is -36.10000this weight must be unusually low
d.
Suppose passenger 3 has a weight of 82.90000 so there zscore is 0.70000  so the weight is not unusual
e.
passenger 1 has a weight of 106.70000  so their zscore is 4.1 this weight must be unusually high
f.
passenger 2 has a weight of 51.40000  so their zscore is -3.8 this weight must be unusually low
 
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that:

Population mean, μ=78

Population standard deviation, σ=7

Weights of passengers 1, 2 and 3 are 106.7, 51.4 and 82.9 respectively.
