Baggage for the plane to handle

Reference no: EM131019874

Average weight of checked baggage in domestic US flights is 25 kg with variance of 900 kg. A plane carries 100 passengers. It can handle 3000 kg of checked baggage, that is, a maximum of 30 kg per passenger. What is the probability that a random load of 100 passengers will check too much baggage for the plane to handle?
