Probability that 10 goats exceed 650 kg weight limit

[Cute aq]

1. The weight of goats at a farm is normally distributed with a mean of 60 kg and a standard deviation of 10 kg. A truck used to transport goats can only accommodate not more than 650 kg. If 10 goats are selected at random from the population, what is the probability that the total weight exceeds the maximum weight?

I am puzzled by this. If, as you appear to be saying, youare not interested in learning HOW to solve problems like this, why would you care about "the answer and solutions"?

Do you understand what a "normally distributed with mean of 60 kg and a standard deviation of 10 kg" MEANS?

If the weight of the goats is "normally distributed with mean of 60 kg and a standard deviation of 10 kg" then the "standard normal distribution" value corresponding to 650/10= 65 kg is (65-60)/10= 5/10= 1/2= 0.50. You can look up the probability on a table of the "standard normal distribution". There is a good one at Standard Normal Distribution Table.pdf (rit.edu) .

maybe they just need to move some goats! :ROFLMAO:

Then they should go to a "goat transportation" board.
