3.A fitness company is building a 20-story high-rise. Architects building the high-rise know that women working for the company have weights that are normally distributed with a mean of 143 lb and a standard deviation of 29 lb, and men working for the company have weights that are normally distributed with a mean of 173 lb and a standard deviation or 28 lb. You need to design an elevator that will safely carry 15 people. Assuming a worst case scenario of 15 male passengers, find the maximum total allowable weight if we want a 0.98 probability that this maximum will not be exceeded when 15 males are randomly selected.
maximum weight =-lb Round to the nearest pound.

5.The amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed with a mean of 0.883 g and a standard deviation of 0.289 g. The company that produces these cigarettes claims that it has now reduced the amount of nicotine. The supporting evidence consists of a sample of 42 cigarettes with a mean nicotine amount of 0.794 g.
Assuming that the given mean and standard deviationhave NOT changed, find the probability of randomly seleting 42 cigarettes with a mean of 0.794 gor less.
P(M< 0.794 g) =
answer as a number accurate to 4 decimal places. Answers obtained using exactz-scores orz-scores rounded to 3 decimal places are accepted.
Based on the result above, is it valid to claim that the amount of nicotine is lower?(Let's use a 5% cut-off for our definition of unusual.)
6.Business Weekly conducted a survey of graduates from 30 top MBA programs. On the basis of the survey, assume the mean annual salary for graduates 10 years after graduation is 169000 dollars. Assume the standard deviation is 39000 dollars. Suppose you take a simple random sample of 90 graduates.
Find the probability that a single randomly selected salary has a mean value between 172699.9 and 181744 dollars.
P(172699.9 <X< 181744) =(Enter your answers as numbers accurate to 4 decimal places.)
