45+8.3 = 53.3

45 - (2(8.3)) = 28.4

The value is 28.4 that is –2 standard deviations away from the mean.

Answer: 28.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A set of data with a mean of $\mu= 45$ and a standard deviation of $\sigma=8.3$ is normally distributed.

Now, the value that is –2 standard deviations away from the mean is given by :-

$x=\mu-2\sigma\\\\\Rightrrrow\ x=45-2(8.3)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=45-16.6\\\\\Rightrrrow\ x=28.4$

Hence, the value that is –2 standard deviations away from the mean. = 28.4
