The population of weights for men attending a local health club is normally distributed with a mean of 171-lbs and a standard de

viation of 29-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 6510-lbs.Assume that there are 35 men in the elevator. What is the average weight beyond which the elevator would be considered overloaded?

Answer:

186 lbs per man.

Explanation:

If we assume that we have 35 men in the elevator, and the elevator will be overloaded if the total weight is in excess of 6510-lbs, so we just need to take average:

6510 lbs / 35 = 186 lbs per man.

Have a nice day!

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

vo = 25 m/sec 
<span>vf = 0 m/sec </span>
<span>Fμ = 7100 N (Force due to friction) </span>
<span>Fg = 14700 N </span>
<span>With the force due to gravity, you can find the mass of the car: </span>
<span>F = ma </span>
<span>14700 N = m (9.8 m/sec²) </span>
<span>m = 1500 kg </span>
<span>Now, we can use the equation again to find the deacceleration due to friction: </span>
<span>F = ma </span>
<span>7100 N = (1500 kg) a </span>
<span>a = 4.73333333333 m/sec² </span>
<span>And now, we can use a velocity formula to find the distance traveled: </span>
<span>vf² = vo² + 2a∆d </span>
<span>0 = (25 m/sec)² + 2 (-4.73333333333 m/sec²) ∆d </span>
<span>0 = 625 m²/sec² + (-9.466666666667 m/sec²) ∆d </span>
<span>-625 m²/sec² = (-9.466666666667 m/sec²) ∆d </span>
<span>∆d = 66.0211267605634 m </span>
<span>∆d = 66.02 m</span>
