Air pollutants common in U.S. cities include fine particulate matter (PM) and ozone (O3). PM is measured as “inhalable” particles 10 micrometers in diameter or “fine inhalable” particles 2.5 micrometers in diameter. Suppose that studies show, for a particular region, that cities exceed PM2.5 standards 20% of the time and exceed ozone standards 10% of the time. Assume that PM2.5 and ozone measurements are statistically independent.

MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER PTC is a substance that has a strong bitter taste for some people and is tasteless for others. The ability to taste PTC is inherited. About 67% of Italians can taste PTC, for example. You want to estimate the proportion of Americans with at least one Italian grandparent who can taste PTC.

Inorganic phosphorous is a naturally occurring element in all plants and animals, with concentrations increasing progressively up the food chain (fruit < vegetables < cereals < nuts < corpse). Geochemical surveys take soil samples to determine phosphorous content (in ppm, parts per million). A high phosphorous content may or may not indicate an ancient burial site, food storage site, or even a garbage dump. Independent random samples from two regions gave the following phosphorous measurements (in ppm). Assume the distribution of phosphorous is mound-shaped and symmetric for these two regions.
