A) maximum mean weight of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ number of passengers
</span><span>
maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 </span>÷ 25 = <span>150lb
</span>B) First, find the z-score:
z = (value - mean) / stdev
= (150 - 199) / 41
= -1.20
We need to find P(z > -1.20) = 1 - P(z < -1.20)
Now, look at a standard normal table to find <span>P(z < -1.20) = 0.11507, therefore:
</span>P(z > -1.20) = 1 - <span>0.11507 = 0.8849
Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 25 randomly selected skiers exceeds 150lb is about 88.5%</span> </span>
C) With only 20 passengers, the new maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 ÷ 20 = <span>187.5lb
Let's repeat the steps of point B)
z = (187.5 - 199) / 41
= -0.29
P(z > -0.29) = 1 - P(z < -0.29) = 1 - 0.3859 = 0.6141
</span>Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 20 randomly selected skiers exceeds 187.5lb is about 61.4%
D) The mean weight of skiers is 199lb, therefore:
number</span> of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ <span>mean weight of passengers
= 3750 </span></span><span>÷ 199
= 18.8
The new capacity of 20 skiers is safer than 25 skiers, but we cannot consider it safe enough, since the maximum capacity should be of 18 skiers.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the situation described, the classification of the runners is given as follows:
Dan - Ben - Alex - Curtis.
<h3>What is the classification of the runners?</h3>
The oldest came in second place. Ben is older than Alex, and Curtis is older than Dan, hence either Ben or Curtis finished second.
Alex ran the distance faster than Curtis, and Dan ran faster than Ben and Curtis, hence considering the above observation Ben finished second and the classification is:
Dan - Ben - Alex - Curtis.

Answer:
$56,226
Step-by-step explanation:
x = investment
Earning interest of 3.57% is the equivalent of multiplying the initial balance (investment) by 1.0357;
Over 20 years, the new balance can be found by multiplying the initial balance by (1.0357)²⁰;
We can formulate an equation to solve to get the initial investment:
x(1.0357)²⁰ = 113400
(2.01687752)x = 113400
x = ¹¹³⁴⁰⁰/₍₂.₀₁₆...₎
x = 56225.5263 → 56226
