You work in the Volkswagen emissions testing department and test 100 diesel engine cars to determine that the average NOx emissions are 0.270 g/km with a standard deviation of 0.045 g/km. If Volkswagen sold 650,000 diesel cars and the law says you cannot emit more than 0.180 g/km, how many cars broke the law? (For full credit, you must show your calculations and have the right number of significant digits and the right units.)

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
