“17-12-04 Jamaica has found signs of oil in 10 exploratory wells drilled into deep underground structures. Now it's come to Houston looking for oil companies willing to help the island nation, which depends heavily on tourism, bauxite and alumina, to become the world's next oil and natural gas producer. Hopeful Jamaican officials traveled to Houston promoting the nation's first formal license round, offering 22 offshore blocks and four on-shore blocks. "There are plenty of reserves yet to be found -- exploration in new frontiers is now warranted," said Raymond Wright of the Petroleum Corporation of Jamaica, reflecting on the world's supply dilemma.
Oil explorers order seismic tests to determine whether oil is likely to be found in a certain drilling area. These seismic tests have a known reliability: When oil exists the tests indicate so 85% of the time and when oil does not exist the…

- Kentville, a community of 10,000 people, resides next to a krypton mine, and there is a concern that the emission from the krypton smelter have resulted in adverse effects. Specifically, Kryptonosis seems to have killed 12 of Kentville’s inhabitants last year. A neighboring community, Lanesburg, has 25,000 inhabitants and is far enough from the smelter to not be affected by the emission. In Lanesburg, only three people last year died of Kryptonosis. Given that the number of deaths in Kentville and their causes last year were: Heart attack=7 Accidents=4 Kryptonosis=12 Other=6 What is the risk of dying of Kryptonosis in Kentville relative to non-contaminated locality?What is the risk of dying of Kryptonosis in Kentville relative to deaths due to other causes?

After sorting, some of the solid refuse will be transported to an electric powerplant where it will be used as fuel. Data for the hauling of refuse from each site to the power plant are shown in Table P2-4. If the power plant will pay $8.00 per cubic yard of sorted solid waste delivered to the plant, where should the solid-waste site be located? Use the city’s viewpoint and assume that 200,000 cubic yards of refuse will be hauled to the plant for one year only.

- In a large metropolitan area, 20% of the commuters currently use the public transportation system, whereas the remaining 80% commute via automobile. The city has recently revitalized and expanded its public transportation system. It is expected that 6 months from now 30% of those who are now commuting to work via automobile will switch to public transportation, and 70% will continue to commute via automobile. At the same time, it is expected that 20% of those now using public transportation will commute via automobile and 80% will continue to use public transportation.

The article stated that “Acetone 1CH3COCH32 is a product that can be purchased inexpensively in most locations around the world, such as in common hardware, auto parts, or drug stores. Added to the fuel tank in tiny amounts, acetone aids in the vaporization of the gasoline or diesel, increasing fuel efficiency, engine longevity, and performance—as well as reducing hydrocarbon emissions.” To test whether this product actually does increase fuel efficiency in passenger cars, a consumer group has randomly selected 5 people to participate in the study. The following procedure is used: People are to bring their cars into a specified gasoline station and have the car filled with regular, unleaded gasoline at a particular pump. Nothing extra is added to the gasoline at this fill-up. The car’s odometer is recorded at the time of fill-up.
