Answer:

61.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

% increase in the number : 7

Thus , actual increase in number will be 7% of x = 7/100 of x = 7x/100

Thus, new number with 7% increase = x+ 7x/100

given that value of new number with 7% increase is 66

Thus,

x+ 7x/100 = 66

=> (100x+7x)/100 = 66

=> 107 x = 66*100

=> x = 6600/107 = 61.682

Thus, original number is 61.682

but we have to find the number to nearest tenth .

original number is 61.7

The probability that the aircraft is overloaded is 97.98%, which means the pilot should take the action.

In a Normal distribution with mean ц and standard deviation σ, the z-score of a measure x is given by:

Z = X-ц / σ

· It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.

· After finding Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

· By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of the size n has standard deviation σ

σ = σ / \sqrt{n}    

σ is standard deviation

n is the sample size.

Given that the mean and the standard deviation of the population is 176.1 lb and 35.4 respectively.

⇒ ц = 176.1  and σ = 35.4

For a sample of 43 passengers, we have

n = 43

σ =  \frac{35.4}{\sqrt{43}}

σ = 5.398

Z = X-ц / σ

Z = \frac{165-176.1}{5.398}

Z = -2.05 has p- value of 0.9798

The probability that the aircraft is loaded is

1 - p-value of Z

1 - 0.0202 = 0.9798

The probability that the aircraft is overloaded is 97.98%
