  • Probability question

    The owner of a fish market determined that the mean weight for a catfish is 3.2 pounds assuming that the weight of a catfish follows a normal distribution and its standard deviation is unknown. He also knew that that probability of a randomly selected catfish that would weigh more than 3.8 pounds is 20% and the probability that a randomly selected catfish that would weigh less than 2.8 pounds is 30%. What is the probability that a randomly selected catfish...

  • Ski Gondola find the probability

    2. A ski gondola in Vail, CO, carries skiers to the top of a mountain. It bears a plaque stating the maximum capacity is 12 people of 2004 pounds. That capacitywill be exceeded if 12 people have weights with a mean greater than 2004/12 = 167 pounds. Because men tend to weigh more than women, a “worse case” scenarioinvolves 12 passengers who are all men. Men have weights that are normally distributed with a mean of 172 pounds with a...

    Dr. I.C. Trout, a professional ichthyologist, is studying a population of catfish with his assistant, Etta Bass. Trout and Bass have established the mean weight for a catfish is 3.2 pounds, with a standard deviation of 0.8 pounds. Weights of catfish are normally distributed. Solve the following: A. What is the probability that a catfish will weigh more than 4.4 pounds? B. What is the probability that a catfish will weigh between 3 and 5 pounds? C. What is the...
