Suppose that the weights of airline passenger bags are normally distributed with a mean of 49.53 pounds and a standard deviation of 3.16 pounds.
a) What is the probability that the weight of a bag will be greater than the maximum allowable weight of 50 pounds? Give your answer to four decimal places.
b) Let X represent the weight of a randomly selected bag. For what value of c is P(E(X) - c < X < E(X) + c)=0.96? Give your answer to four decimal places.
c) Assume the weights of individual bags are independent. What is the expected number of bags out of a sample of 17 that weigh greater than 50 lbs? Give your answer to four decimal places.
d) Assuming the weights of individual bags are independent, what is the probability that 8 or fewer bags weigh greater than 50 pounds in a sample of size 17? Give your answer to four decimal places.

On the way home from visiting his family, vincent’s plane cruised at an altitude of 3.2 × 10^4 feet. he had heard that a man named felix baumgartner skydived from an altitude of 1.28 × 10^5 feet. vincent wants to know how much higher felix went on his skydiving trip. question 1 you have already seen how adding numbers works in either scientific notation or standard notation. but can you subtract numbers in scientific notation and get the same results as subtracting in standard notation? to find out, first solve vincent’s problem in standard notation. part a write the cruising altitude of vincent’s plane in standard notation.

Arandom sample of 15 observations is used to estimate the population mean. the sample mean and the standard deviation are calculated as 172 and 63, respectively. assume that the population is normally distributed. a. with 99 confidence, what is the margin of error for the estimation of the population mean? b. construct the 99% confidence interval for the population mean. c. construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean. d. construct the 83% confidence interval for the population mean. hint: you need to use excel function =t.inv.2t to find the value of t for the interval calculation.
