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.)

1. Satistics: Normal distribution

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.)
