A sample of n = 16 scores is obtained from a population with a mean of 70 and standard deviation of 20. If the sample mean is 75, then the z-score corresponding to the sample mean is ____. Hint: You need to use the sampling distribution of the mean for a sample size of 16 and population standard deviation of 20.

The mean SAT score in mathematics, μ, is 551. The standard deviation of these scores is 33, A special preparation course claims that its graduates will score higher, on average, than the mean score 551. A random sample of 43 students completed the course, and their mean SAT score in mathematics was 556 Assume that the population is normally distributed. At the 0.05 level of significance, can we conclude that the preparation course does what it claims? Assume that the...
