In response to the increasing weight of airline passengers, the Federal Aviation Administration in 2003 told airlines to assume

that passengers average 192 pounds in the summer, including clothing and carry-on baggage. But passengers vary, and the FAA did not specify a standard deviation. A reasonable standard deviation is 31 pounds. Weights are not Normally distributed, especially when the population includes both men and women, but they are not very non-Normal. A commuter plane carries 21 passengers. What is the approximate probability that the total weight of the passengers exceeds 4432 pounds

Answer:

The approximate probability that the total weight of the passengers exceeds 4432 pounds is 0.2709

Step-by-step explanation:

\mu = 192

\sigma = 31

No. of passengers = n = 21

We are supposed to find the approximate probability that the total weight of the passengers exceeds 4432 pounds

x = \frac{4432}{21} \sim 211

Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\Z=\frac{211-192}{31}

Z=0.612

refer z table

P(Z<211)=0.7291

P(Z>211)=P(Z>4432)=1-0.7291=0.2709

Hence the approximate probability that the total weight of the passengers exceeds 4432 pounds is 0.2709

Deon has a pizza with a diameter
OverLord2011 [107]

The square box is enough to fit the pizza with a diameter of 10 inches inside. Since the area of the square box is more than the area of the pizza, the pizza fits easily in the square box.

<h3>What is the area of the circle and the square?</h3>

The area of the circle is

Ac = πr² = πd²/4 sq. units

Where r is the radius and d is the diameter of the circle.

The area of the square is given by

As = s² sq. units

Where s is the length of the side of a square.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

It is given that a pizza(in a circular shape) with a diameter d = 10 in is to be placed in a square box of the same length as the diameter of the pizza.

So,

The area of pizza is

Ap = Ac = πd²/4 sq. units

     = π(10)²/4

     = 25π

     = 78.54 sq. in

Then, the area of the square box with the length same as the diameter of the pizza is,

As = d²

    = 10²

    = 100 sq. in

Since the area of the square is more than the area of the pizza (100 sq. inch > 78.54 sq. inch), the pizza easily fits into the square box.
