Emissions of nitrogen oxides, which are the major constituents of smog, can be modeled using a normal distribution. Let x denote the amount of this pollutant emitted by a randomly selected vehicle (in parts per billion, emission level). The distribution of x can be described by a normal distribution with an average emission value of 1.6 and standard deviation of 0.4. What percentage of vehicles have a minimum emission level of 2? Suppose that the EPA wants to offer some sort of incentive to get the worst polluters off the road. What emission levels constitute the worst 10% of the vehicles?
The weights of a bag of cement admixture produced by a company is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 9.0 kilograms and a variance of 0.64 kilogram. If measurements are recorded to the nearest tenth of a kilogram, find the proportion of these bags with weights (a) of at most 8.4 kilograms; (b) between 7.1 and 9.2 kilograms inclusive.

Spray drift is a constant concern for pesticide applicators and agricultural producers. The inverse relationship between droplet size and drift potential is well known. The paper "Effects of 2,4-D Formulation and Quinclorac on Spray Droplet Size and Deposition"t investigated the effects of herbicide formulation on spray atomization. A figure in a paper suggested the normal distribution with mean 1050 µm and standard deviation 150 µm was a reasonable model for droplet size for water (the "control treatment") sprayed through a 760 ml/min nozzle. n USE SALT (a) What is the probability that the size of a single droplet is less than 1455 µm?

Assume the samples are random and independent, the populations are normally distributed, and the population variances are equal. The table available below shows the prices (in dollars) for a sample of automobile batteries. The prices are classified according to battery type. At α=0.10, is there enough evidence to conclude that at least one mean battery price is different from the others? Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
Suppose that contamination particle size (in microm- eters) can be modeled as f(x)=2x³ for 1 < x. Determine the mean of X. What can you conclude about the variance of X?
