The answer is 83.6 for apex

Explanation:

Given mean = 84,

Standard deviation = 2,

Sample 64,  

95% confidence interval: z = 1.96

Applying empirical rule , means that 95% of data fall within two standard deviations.

ME = [tex]1.96*\frac{2}{\sqrt{8}}[/tex] = 0.49

Rounding this to 0.5

CI =  83.5< mean < 84.5

Outside of this range=  x ≤ 83.5  and ≥  84.5
