A ferry will safely accommodate 82 tons of passenger cars. Assume that the meanweight of a passenger car is 2 tons with standard deviation 0.8 tons. If a random sampleof 37 cars are loaded onto the ferry, what is the probability that the maximum safeweight will be exceeded?

The probability that the maximum safe-weight will be exceeded is 0.0455 or 4.55%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Maximum safe-weight of 37 cars = 82 tons
∴ Maximum safe-weight of 1 car (x) = 82 ÷ 37 = 2.22 tons (Unitary method)
Mean weight of 1 car (μ) = 2 tons
Standard deviation of 37 cars = 0.8 tons
So, standard deviation of 1 car is given as:
Probability that maximum safe-weight is exceeded, P(x > 2.22) = ?
The sample is normally distributed (Assume)
Now, let us determine the z-score of the mean weight.
The z-score is given as:
Now, finding P(x > 2.22) is same as finding P(z > 1.69).
From the z-score table of normal distribution curve, the value of area under the curve for z < 1.69 is 0.9545.
But we need the area under the curve for z > 1.69.
So, we subtract from the total area. Total area is 1 or 100%.
So,![P(z 1.69) = 1 - P(z < 1.69)](/tpl/images/0572/4709/6f249.png)
Therefore, the probability that the maximum safe-weight will be exceeded is 0.0455 or 4.55%.
