Ottawa Public Health collects beach water samples every day duringthe summer. A non-swimming advisory is issued for a beach if bac-teria level is over 200E.coli per 100 ml of water tested. Assume thatthe bacteria level is a normal random variable with mean µ = 120 andstandard deviation o = 50. What is the probability that a non-swimadvisory will be issued for Mooney's Bay beach for at least two CanadaDays among the next 5 Canada Days?A) 0.027B) 0.246C) 0.055D) 0.163E) 0.378

The advertised fuel economy of the 2020 Toyota Camry model with 4 cylinders and a 2.5 liter engine is 34 miles per gallon (mpg). The observed fuel economy among drivers of that vehicle is slightly lower. The distribution of those values is approximately normal with a mean mpg is 33.5. When a model of this vehicle is randomly selected, the probability that its mpg is 2.8 standard deviations above the mean is 0.39. Find the probability a randomly selected model of this vehicle has mpg 2.8 standard deviations below the mean. Express the answer as a decimal value rounded to the nearest hundredth. Pay attention to the side of the diagram you make.
