Substitute 22 for x
2(22)-5
44-5
39
Answer:
And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard tabe and we got:
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the temperatures of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
Where
and
We are interested on this probability
And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:
If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:
And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard tabe and we got:
Get the value of the decimal:

Remember that percentages are simply the value of a decimal multiplied by 100. (From the Latin, "per centus", meaning "per 100")
therefore:
F(-2)=2(4)
-2=8
— —
-2 -2
F=-4
