Find the maximum total allowable weight


Men's weights are normally distributed with a mean of 172 lb and a standard deviation of 29 lb (based on data from the National Health Survey). You need to design an elevator for the Westport Shopping Center, and it must safely carry 16 people. (We will assume that the heaviest scenario would be 16 men.) Find the maximum total allowable weight if you want a 0.975 probability that this maximum will not be exceeded when 16 males are randomly selected.
