Solution Steps

Step 1: Plotting the y-intercept

The y-intercept is at (0, 5). This is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Step 2: Using the slope to determine the direction and steepness of the line

The slope of the line is 0.5, which means for every one unit we move right along the x-axis, we move 0.5 units vertically. Therefore, a second point on the line can be found at (1, 5.5).

Step 3: Drawing the line

A straight line is drawn through these points extending in both directions.

Final Answer: The equation of the line is \(y = 0.5x + 5\).

An elevator has a placard stating that the maximum capacity is 4500 lb-29 passengers. So, 29 adult male passengers can have a mean weight of up to 4500 / 29=155 pounds. Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 180 lb and a standard deviation of 33 lb. a. Find the probability that 1 randomly selected adult male has a weight greater than 155 lb. b. Find the probability that a sample of 29 randomly selected adult males has a mean weight greater than 155 lb. c. What do you conclude about the safety of this elevator?
