mean     
standard deviation     


(b) What is the probability that concentration is at most 10? Between 5 and 10? (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

at most 10

In the Earth’s crust, the concentration of Aluminum follows a lognormal distribution with parameters µln = 1.505 pph and sln = 1.10 pph. (Note: that pph means part-perhundred.) Despite the abundance of recycled Aluminum, a geological team from Alcoa is making a determination of potential mining conditions at possible locations in Canada. If the smallest 87.7% of the sampled concentration levels are considered unprofitable for mining purposes, what is the lowest possible concentration of aluminum needed in this location before...

What is the probability that the concentration exceeds 0.60? b. What is the probability that the concentration is at most 0.30? c. How would you characterize the largest 5% of all concentration values? d. The largest 5% of all concentration values are above = mg/cm3.
