### Understanding Normal Distributions in Temperature DataIn Paradise City, temperatures during June follow a nearly normal distribution pattern. This distribution has a mean (average) temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit and a standard deviation of 6 degrees Fahrenheit. In this context, the standard deviation is a measure of how much temperatures typically vary from the mean.#### Question:Which of the following temperatures would be considered unusual?- 72.8°F- 79.4°F- 65°F- 82.4°F- 82.4°FTo determine if a temperature is unusual, we need to consider how far it deviates from the mean in terms of standard deviation units (also known as Z-scores). Generally, values that are more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean are considered unusual. ***Example Calculation:***- Mean (μ) = 80°F- Standard Deviation (σ) = 6°FLet's calculate how far 65°F is from the mean:\[ \text{Z-score} = \frac{(X - \mu)}{\sigma} \]\[ \text{Z-score for 65°F} = \frac{(65 - 80)}{6} \]\[ \text{Z-score for 65°F} = \frac{-15}{6} \]\[ \text{Z-score for 65°F} = -2.5 \]A Z-score of -2.5 indicates that 65°F is 2.5 standard deviations below the mean. Since this is more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean, the temperature of 65°F would be considered unusual.Let's review each temperature to identify which is considered unusual:- 72.8°F -> Calculate its Z-score- 79.4°F -> Calculate its Z-score- 65°F -> Already calculated as unusual- 82.4°F -> Calculate its Z-score- 82.4°F -> Same as the previous 82.4°FYou can perform similar Z-score calculations to determine the usualness of the other temperatures. Generally, a Z-score greater than 2 or less than -2 indicates an unusual value.**Note:** The repeated value of 82.4°F seems to be a duplicate choice in the provided options. To ensure clarity, confirm that each option represents a distinct value when constructing your question set.

Normal distribution is a continuous distribution which has many real life applications. Normal curve…

A scale is known to be "low-calibrated" in that it measures an aluminum bar to be 4 grams lower than the actual weight. If ????μold is the mean of all possible measurements of the bar using the old calibration, and ????μnew is the mean of all possible measurements of the bar using a re-calibrated scale. It is desired that ????−????=4μnew−μold=4. Consider the test ?0:????−????=4H0:μnew−μold=4 vs. ?0:????−????≠4H0:μnew−μold≠4 Sample after calibration: mean is 95.8 , SD is 4.9 and sample size is 10 Sample before calibration: mean is 89.352 , SD is 4.2 and sample size is 62 We do not know population standard deviations.
