I think i can! an important measure of the performance of a locomotive is its "adhesion," which is the locomotive's pulling force as a multiple of its weight. The adhesion of one 4400-horsepower diesel locomotive varies in actual use according to a Normal distribution with mean = 0.37 and standard deviation = 0.04. For each part of that follows, sketch and shade an appropriate Normal distrbution. Then show your work.
a) For a certain small train's daily route, the locomotive needs to have an adhesion of at least 0.30 for the train to arrive at its destination on time.
