Answer: 0.03855

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :A population of skiers has a distribution of weights with mean 190 pounds and standard deviation 40 pounds.

Its maximum safe load is 10000 pounds.

Let X denotes the weight of 50 people.

As per given ,

Population mean weight of 50 people = $\mu=50\times190=9500\text{ pounds}$

Standard deviation of 50 people $=\sigma=40\sqrt{50}=40(7.07106781187)=282.84$

Then , the probability its maximum safe load will be exceeded =

$P(X>10000)=P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\dfrac{10000-9500}{282.84})\\\\=P(z>1.7671-8)\\\\=1-P(z\leq1.7678)\ \ \ \ [\because\ P(Z>z)=P(Z\leq z)]\\\\=1-0.96145\ \ \ [\text{ By p-value of table}]\\\\=0.03855$
