Elevator Loads The maximum load (with a generous safety factor) for the elevator in an office building is 2000 pounds. The relative frequency distribution of the weights of all men and women using the elevator is mound-shaped (slightly skewed to the heavy weights), with mean µ equal to 150 pounds and standard deviation σ equal to 35 pounds. What is the largest number of people you can allow on the elevator if you want their total weight to exceed the maximum weight with a small probability (say, near .01)? (HINT: Use the alternative statement of the Central Limit Theorem for given in Section 7.4.)
