a. What percentage of adult men can fit through the door without bending?

The percentage of men who can fit without bending is %.0.04 (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

b. Does the door design with a height of in. appear to be adequate? Why didn't the engineers design a larger door?56

A. The door design is adequate, because although many men will not be able to fit without bending, most women will be able to fit without bending. Thus, a larger door is not needed.

B. The door design is adequate, because the majority of people will be able to fit without bending. Thus, a larger door is not needed.

C. The door design is inadequate, because every person needs to be able to get into the aircraft without bending. There is no reason why this should not be implemented.

D. The door design is inadequate, but because the jet is relatively small and seats only six people, a much higher door would require major changes in the design and cost of the jet, making a larger height not practical.

c. What doorway height would allow 40% of men to fit without bending?

The percentage of women that have weights between those limits is %. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Are many women excluded with those specifications?

A. Yes, the percentage of women who are excluded, which is equal to the probability found previously, shows that about half of women are excluded.

B. No, the percentage of women who are excluded, which is the complement of the probability found previously, shows that very few women are excluded.

C. No, the percentage of women who are excluded, which is equal to the probability found previously, shows that very few women are excluded.

D. Yes, the percentage of women who are excluded, which is the complement of the probability found previously, shows that about half of women are excluded.

The probability is . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

b. If adult females are randomly selected, find the probability that they have pulse rates with a mean between beats per minute and beats per minute.

16 67 81

The probability is . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

c. Why can the normal distribution be used in part (b), even though the sample size does not exceed 30?

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. The seat was designed for pilots weighing between lb and lb. The new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of and a standard

deviation of . 140 191 148 lb

31.6 lb

a. If a pilot is randomly selected, find the probability that his weight is between lb and lb.140 191

The probability is approximately . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

b. If different pilots are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight is between lb and lb.34 140 191

The probability is approximately . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

c. When redesigning the ejection seat, which probability is more relevant?

A. Part (a) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important. B. Part (b) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. C. Part (a) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. D. Part (b) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important.

A boat capsized and sank in a lake. Based on an assumption of a mean weight of lb, the boat was rated to carry passengers (so the load limit was lb). After the boat sank, the assumed mean weight for similar boats was

changed from lb to lb. Complete parts a and b below.

139 70 9,730

139 175

a. Assume that a similar boat is loaded with passengers, and assume that the weights of people are normally distributed with a mean of lb and a standard deviation of lb. Find the probability that the boat is overloaded because the passengers have a mean weight greater than lb.

70 180.5 36.2

70 139

The probability is . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

b. The boat was later rated to carry only passengers, and the load limit was changed to lb. Find the probability that the boat is overloaded because the mean weight of the passengers is greater than (so that their total weight is greater than the maximum capacity of lb).

A. Because is greater than , the new ratings do not appear to be safe when the boat is loaded with passengers.

180.5 175 15

B. Because there is a high probability of overloading, the new ratings appear to be safe when the boat is loaded with passengers.15

C. Because there is a high probability of overloading, the new ratings do not appear to be safe when the boat is loaded with passengers.15

D. Because the probability of overloading is lower with the new ratings than with the old ratings, the new ratings appear to be safe.

An airliner carries passengers and has doors with a height of in. Heights of men are normally distributed with a mean of in and a standard deviation of in. Complete parts (a) through (d).

200 76 69.0 2.8

a. If a male passenger is randomly selected, find the probability that he can fit through the doorway without bending.

The probability is . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

b. If half of the passengers are men, find the probability that the mean height of the men is less than in.200 100 76

The probability is . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

c. When considering the comfort and safety of passengers, which result is more relevant: the probability from part (a) or the probability from part (b)? Why?

A. The probability from part (b) is more relevant because it shows the proportion of flights where the mean height of the male passengers will be less than the door height.

B. The probability from part (a) is more relevant because it shows the proportion of male passengers that will not need to bend.

C. The probability from part (a) is more relevant because it shows the proportion of flights where the mean height of the male passengers will be less than the door height.

D. The probability from part (b) is more relevant because it shows the proportion of male passengers that will not need to bend.

d. When considering the comfort and safety of passengers, why are women ignored in this case?

A. There is no adequate reason to ignore women. A separate statistical analysis should be carried out for the case of women.

B. Since men are generally taller than women, it is more difficult for them to bend when entering the aircraft. Therefore, it is more important that men not have to bend than it is important that women not have to bend.

C. Since men are generally taller than women, a design that accommodates a suitable proportion of men will necessarily accommodate a greater proportion of women.

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 passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of

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 lb. What is the probability that the aircraft is overloaded? Should the pilot

take any action to correct for an overloaded aircraft? Assume that weights of men are normally distributed with a mean of lb and a standard deviation of .

39 6,435

= 165 6,435 lb

39

182.1 39.1

The probability is approximately . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

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

A. No. Because the probability is high, the aircraft is safe to fly with its current load. B. Yes. Because the probability is high, the pilot should take action by somehow reducing the weight of the

aircraft.
