Working with mean, standard deviation and the normal distribution table.
The average weight of an airline passenger's suitcase is 45 pounds. The standard deviation is 2 pounds. If 15% of the suitcases are overweight, find the maximum weight allowed by the airline. Assume the variable is normally distributed.
This solution contains a detailed explanation of determining bounds by the normal distribution table.
