    130 is 2 standard deviations above the mean.

    95% of the population lie within 2 standard deviations, so 5% lie outside 2 standard deviations.

    The percentage lying above 2 standard deviations is half of that, so 2.5%.

    130 is 2 standard deviations above the mean so that is equivalent to 95%. So percent above 130 = 5%.
