Oxygen demand is a term biologists use to describe the oxygen needed by fish and other aquatic organisms for survival. The Environmental Protection Agency conducted a study of a wetland area. In this wetland environment, the mean oxygen demand was u = 9.3 mg/L with 95% of the data ranging from 6.7 mg/L to 11.9 mg/L. Let x be a random variable that represents oxygen demand in this wetland environment. Assume x has a probability distribution that is approximately normal. In USE SALT (a) Use the 95% data range to estimate the standard deviation for oxygen demand. (b) An oxygen demand below 8 indicates that some organisms in the wetland environment may be dying. What is the probability that the oxygen demand will fall below mg/L? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) A high oxygen demand can also indicate trouble. An oxygen demand above 12 may indicate an overabundance of organisms that endanger some types of plant life. What is the probability that the oxygen demand will exceed…

In an election, suppose that 45% of voters support creating a new fire district. If we poll 202 of these voters at random, the probability distribution for the proportion of the polled voters that support creating a new fire district can be modeled by the normal distribution pictured below. The bell curve below represents the distribution of these sample proportions. The scale on the horizontal axis is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution. So each tick mark represents a distance of one standard deviation on the distribution, with the middle tick mark being the mean of the distribution. Complete the boxes accurate to two decimal places. Note that the second box is at the mean. The first box is two standard deviations below the mean, and the third box is two standard deviations above the mean. Complete the boxes accurate to two decimal places.
