Example 2 referred to an elevator with a maximum capacity of 4000 lb. When rating elevators, it is common to use a 25% safety factor, so the elevator should actually be able to carry a load that is 25% greater than the stated limit. The maximum capacity of 4000 lb becomes 5000 lb after it is increased by 25%, so 27 adult male passengers can have a mean weight of up to 185 lb. If the elevator is loaded with 27 adult male passengers, find the probability that it is overloaded because they have a mean weight greater than 185 lb. (As in Example 2, assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 189 lb and a standard deviation of 39 lb.) Does this elevator appear to be safe?

Submarines control how much they float or sink in the ocean by changing the volume of air and water contained in large ballast tanks. when the tanks are completely full of water, the submarine increases its overall mass and sinks down to the bottom. when the tanks are completely full of air, the submarine reduces its overall mass and floats to the surface. depending on the density of the seawater surrounding the submarine, it will pump seawater in or out of the tanks in order to achieve the same overall density as the sea water and float neutrally in the water. the volume of the submarine never changes. when the tanks are completely full of water, a submarine with a volume of 7.8\times10^3\text{ m}^37.8×10 3 m 3 7, point, 8, times, 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript has a total mass of 8\times10^6\text{ kg}8×10 6 kg8, times, 10, start superscript, 6, end superscript, space, k, g. the density of the seawater is 10^3\text{ kg/m}^310 3 kg/m 3 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, k, g, slash, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. to make that submarine float neutrally, and neither float nor sink in the ocean, what volume of water does that submarine need to subtract from its tanks?
