Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of synthetic oil-like chemicals that were at one time widely used as insulation in electrical equipment and were discharged into rivers. They were discovered to be a health hazard and were banned in the 1970s. Since then, much effort has gone into monitoring PCB concentrations in waterways. Assume that water samples are being drawn from a waterway in order to estimate the PCB concentration.
