Answer:
P2 = -2.054ºC
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 0, \sigma = 1[/tex]
P2
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.02. So X when Z Â = -2.054.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-2.054 = \frac{X - 0}{1}[/tex]
[tex]X = -2.054[/tex]
P2 = -2.054ºC
