It is known that the yield of a chemical process is normally distributed with mean of 12 g/Kg and variance of 4.2(g/kg)$^2$. g) Specify the value of the yield that is 2 standard deviations above the mean. [10 points] h) Determine specifications that are symmetric about the mean and include 85% of all yields. [10 points] i) Industry standards require that the yield should be more than 8 g/Kg in 95% of the cases. Check if the particular chemical process meets the requirement. [10 points]

The yield of a chemical process is being studied. From previous experience, yield is known to be normally distributed. The past five days of plant operation have resulted in the following yields: 90.6, 89.75, 91.2, 89.05, and 90.3. (a) Find a 90% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean yield. (b) Find a 95% lower confidence bound interval on the true mean yield.

The yield of a chemical process is being studied. From previous experience, yield is known to be normally distributed with variance σ²= 9. The random sample of five days of plant operation have resulted in the following percent yields: 91.6, 88.75, 90.8, 89.95, and 91.3. Find a 95% two-sided confidence interval (CI) on the true mean yield.
