A set of average city temperatures in May are normally distributed with a mean of 20.66 ^\circ \text{C}20.66 ∘

What proportion of average city temperatures are lower than that of Singapore?

You may round your answer to four decimal places.

0.9962

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score shows the number of standard deviations by which the raw score is above or below the mean. If the raw score is above the mean then the z score is positive but if the raw score is less than the mean then the raw score is negative. The z score is given by:

μ = 20.66°C, σ = 2°C

For x < Singapore temperature, i.e. x < 26

From the normal distribution table P(x < 26) = P(z < 2.67) = 0.9962

to find the total number of combinations, multiply the quantity of each item by each other:

2 pairs of shoes x 3 pairs of shorts = 6 different combinations.
