Engineers are designing a large elevator that will accommodate 58 people. The maximum weight the elevator can hold safely is pounds. According to the National Health Statistics Reports, the weights of adult U. S. men have mean pounds and standard deviation pounds, and the weights of adult U. S. women have mean pounds and standard deviation pounds. Use the TI-84 Plus calculator. Required:
a. If 58 people are on the elevator, and their total weight is 11,716 pounds, what is their average weight?
b. If a random sample of 58 adult men ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?

Complete question is;

Engineers are designing a large elevator that will accommodate 58 people. The maximum weight the elevator can hold safely is 11,716 pounds. According to the National Health Statistics Reports, the weights of adult U.S. men have mean 190 pounds and standard deviation 62 pounds, and the weights of adult U.S. women have mean 184 pounds and standard deviation 71 pounds. Use the TI-84 Plus calculator.

Required:

a. If 58 people are on the elevator, and their total weight is 11,716 pounds, what is their average weight?

b. If a random sample of 58 adult men ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?

A) average weight = 202 pounds

B) the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded = 42.47%

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that 58 people are on the elevator and that their total weight is 11,716 pounds. Thus;

Average weight = total weight/number of people = 11716/58 = 202 pounds

B) We will use z-score formula in this;

z = (x¯ - μ)/σ

Now, in part a above, we saw that the average weight is 202 pounds. Thus; x¯ = 202 pounds

We are told that standard deviation for men is;

σ = 62 pounds

We are told that the weights of adult U.S. men have mean 190 pounds . Thus; μ = 190

Thus;

z = (202 - 190)/62

z = 0.19

From z-distribution table, p-value = 0.57535

Thus;

P(z > 0.19) = 1 - 0.57535 = 0.42465

Thus, the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded = 0.42465 ≈ 42.47%

he will have 300 because he is really broke and 300 is in his imangine

step-by-step explanation: he ehe heh step by the thy

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
