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 .

a vendor bought n dozen eggs at the rate of 22.6 of the rotating he sold the remaining acts at the rate of 2.50 per act find his
babymother [125]

Answer:

Your question was a bit confusing so I found another related question. You can reference it with your own details.

A vendor bought 10 dozen eggs at the rate of Rs 22 per dozen. Six of the eggs were rotten. He sold the remaining eggs at the rate of Rs 2.50 per egg . Find his profit or loss

Vendor bought 10 dozen eggs which means the vendor bought:

= 10 * 12 eggs

= 120 eggs

6 were rotten and he sold the rest for Rs. 2.50 per egg.

= (120 - 6) * 2.5

= Rs. 285

The amount he spent on the eggs was:

= 10 dozen * 22

= Rs. 220

Profit = 285 - 220

= Rs. 65

It is believed that 44% of all Americans eat breakfast every day. For a class project, you randomly select Clemson students and
GaryK [48]

Answer:

For this case we want to conduct a test in order to see if the proportion of Clemson students who eat breakfast is different from 0.44 (alternative hypothesis). And the complement would represent the null hypothesis, and the system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null Hypothesis: p =0.44

Alternative hypothesis: p \neq 0.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".  

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".

Solution to the problem

For this case we want to conduct a test in order to see if the proportion of Clemson students who eat breakfast is different from 0.44 (alternative hypothesis). And the complement would represent the null hypothesis, and the system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null Hypothesis: p =0.44

Alternative hypothesis: p \neq 0.44
