X~N(-2,1)μ=_____________

Short Answer

Expert verified

The value ofμ=-2

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

Given in the question that,

X~N(-2,1)μ=___________

We have to find the value ofμ

02

Explanation

It is shown that,

X~N(-2,1)

Compare the above random variable X from the general random variable for normal distribution, which is shown as below:

X~N(μ,σ)

It is clear that the value of μis -2
