Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For very well describe a normal distribution, it is needed the mean and the standard deviation. We are only lacking the mean to properly describe the nitrogen levels emitted by the vehicles. He would like to measure the emitted NOX so he could properly model this phenomena.
