Answer the following questions 1) Assume that the readings on the thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0° and a standard deviation of 1.00°C. A thermometer is randomly selected and tested. a) Draw a sketch b) Find the temperature reading corresponding to P86 ,the 86th percentile. This is the temperature reading separating the bottom 86% from the top 14% 2) Assume that the readings on the thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0° and a standard deviation of 1.00°C. Assume 2.4% of the thermometers are rejected because they have readings that are too high and another 2.4% are rejected because they have readings that are too low. a) Draw a sketch
Answer the following questions

a) Draw a sketch
b) Find the temperature reading corresponding to P86 ,the 86th percentile. This is the temperature reading separating the bottom 86% from the top 14%
2) Assume that the readings on the thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0° and a standard deviation of 1.00°C. Assume 2.4% of the thermometers are rejected because they have readings that are too high and another 2.4% are rejected because they have readings that are too low.
a) Draw a sketch
b) Find the 2 readings that are cutoff values separating the rejected thermometers from the others.
