In response to the increasing weight of airline passengers, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) told airlines to assume that passengers average 190 pounds in the summer, including clothes and carry-on baggage. But passengers vary, and the FAA did not specify standard deviation. A reasonable standard deviation is 35 pounds. Weights are not Normally distributed, especially when the population includes both men and women, but they are not very non-Normal. A commuter plane carries 30 passengers. Find the probability that the total weight of 30 randomly selected passengers exceeds 6000 pounds. Show your work. (Hint: To apply the central limit theorem, restate the problem in terms of the mean weight.)
