In response to the increasing weight of airline passengers, the Federal Aviation Administration in 2003 told airlines to assume that passengers average 194 pounds in the summer, including clothing and carry-on baggage. But passengers vary, and the FAA did not specify a standard deviation. A reasonable standard deviation is 36 pounds. Weights are not Normally distributed, especially when the population includes both men and women, but they are not very non-Normal. A commuter plane carries 22 passengers. What is the approximate probability that the total weight of the passengers exceeds 4668 pounds? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Probability = 0.0089

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question ;

Mean (μ) = 194 pounds

Standard deviation(σ) = 36 pounds

Minimum total weight = 4688

Passengers carried = 22

Thus average weight = 4668/22 = 212.18

The z-value is given by;

Z = (x - μ) / ((σ)/√n)

Z= (212.18 - 194)/(36/√22)

Z = 18.18/7.675 = 2.37

Using the table I attached ;

P(z>2.37) = 0.0089

introduction, methodology, results, discussion

step-by-step explanation:

an observational study is one which consists of actual observation to record data and then analyse the data.

there are a number of factors that should be analyzed before starting an observational study.

the main four factors are:

i) introduction:   this should be analysed to check whether the purpose of the study is correctly established and the data recorded are appropriate for the study

methodology:   the method of collecting the data, such as whether randomly selected, and whether sample size matches with the population to be studied, whether questions asked are easy to answer by common men, etc.

results: then results such as summary of data with comments should be studied thoroughly

discussion:   the last is the discussion, this can be either by management people or persons who are all interested , etc.
