  1. The Precision Scientific Instrument Company manufactures thermometers that are supposed to give readings of  at the freezing point of water. Tests on a larger sample of these thermometers reveal that at the freezing point of water, some give readings below  (denoted by negative numbers) and some give readings above  (denoted by positive numbers). Assume that the mean reading is  and the standard deviation of the readings is . Also assume that the frequency distribution of the errors closely resembles the normal distribution.
