Before every​ flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the ai

rcraft. The aircraft can carry 37 ​passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 6,216 lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 6216/37 = 168 lb. What is the probability that the aircraft is​ overloaded

Answer:

The probability that the aircraft  is  overload = 0.9999

Yes , The pilot has to be take strict action .

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Given - Before every​ flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the aircraft. The aircraft can carry 37 ​passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 6,216 lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 6216/37 = 168 lb. Assume that weight of men are normally distributed with a mean of 182.7 lb and a standard deviation of 39.6.

To find - What is the probability that the aircraft is​ overloaded ?

         Should the pilot take any action to correct for an overloaded aircraft ?

Proof -

Given that,

Mean, μ = 182.7

Standard Deviation, σ = 39.6

Now,

Let X be the Weight of the men

Now,

Probability that the aircraft is loaded be

P(X > 168 ) = P(\frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} > \frac{168 - \mu}{\sigma} )

                 = P( z > \frac{168 - 182.7}{39.6} )

                 = P( z > -0.371)

                 = 1 - P ( z ≤ -0.371 )

                 = 1 - P( z > 0.371)

                 = 1 - 0.00010363

                 = 0.9999

⇒P(X > 168) = 0.9999

As the probability of weight overload = 0.9999

So, The pilot has to be take strict action .

Amirah volunteers at the recycling center every weekend. Last weekend, she helped sort 263 pounds of cans and bottles 668 pounds
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The total amount of recyclables sorted by Amirah is 931 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of cans and bottles sorted  = 263 pounds

Amount of paper sorted  =  668 pounds

So, the total amount of recyclables sorted

= amount of cans and bottle sorted + amount of paper sorted

= 263 pounds + 668 pounds

= 931 pounds

Hence, the total amount of recyclables sorted is 931 pounds.
