An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. the seat was designed for pilots weighing between 120 lb and 161 lb. the new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 125 lb and a standard deviation of 28.1 lb. a)if a pilot is randomly selected, find the probability that his weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb. the probability is approximately? b. if 36 different pilots are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb. the probability is approximately? c. when redesigning the ejection seat, which probability is more relevant? . part (b) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important. b. part (b) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. c. part (a) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. d. part (a) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important.

A. the probability that a product is defective is 0.1. what is the probability that there will be 1 or less defective products out of the next 8 produced products b. the expected number of imperfections in the coating nylon for parachutes is 6 per 100 yards. what is the probability of finding 12 or fewer imperfections in 260 yards c. in a lot of 54 products there are 9 defective products. calculate the probability that not more than 1 is defective from a random sample of 17 products.
