Answer:

131 (approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Mean = 100

The critical z score = 2.06 (Using z value calculator)

Standard deviation = 15

Alpha value = 2% = 2/100 = 0.02

Right tailed area = 0.98

Computation:

Qualifying score = Mean + (critical z score × standard deviation)

Qualifying score = 100 + (2.06 × 15)

Qualifying score = 100 + (2.06 × 15)

Qualifying score = 100 + 30.9

= 130.9

= 131 (approx)
