The population of weights for men attending a local health club is normally distributed with a mean of 178-lbs and a standard de
viation of 25-lbs. An elevator in the health club is limited to 35 occupants, but it will be overloaded if the total weight is in excess of 6720-lbs. 1. Assume that there are 35 men in the elevator, what is the average weight per man beyond which the elevator would be considered overloaded?
given that the population of weights for men attending a local health club is normally distributed with a mean of 178-lbs and a standard deviation of 25-lbs.
Total weight in the lift should not exceed 6420 lbs
No of persons limited = 35
Hence average weight of the person that should be below
If the average exceeds 183.4286 pounds then the elevator would be considered overloaded.
Vertical asymptotes can be found by solving the equation n(x) = 0 where n(x) is the denominator of the function ( note: this only applies if the numerator t(x) is not zero for the same x value). Find the asymptotes for the function . The graph has a vertical asymptote with the equation x = 1.
The answer is D. To help find the answer, you can remember an easy rule. The rule is if you're subtracting a positive number from a negative number, it will always be negative thus eliminating any answers that are positive.
