A population data set has a mean of 81 and a standard deviation of 5.2. Find the z-scores for each of the following. Round to the nearest hundredth.
(a) x = 74
(b) x = 85
Solution :
(a)
x = 74
z = (x -
) /
= (74 - 81) / 5.2 =
-1.35
(b)
x = 85
z = (85 - 81) / 5.2 = 0.77

For the following situation, find the mean and standard deviation of the population. List all samples (with replacement) of the given size from that population and find the mean of each. Find the mean and standard distribution and compare them with the mean and standard deviation of the population. The scores of three students in a study group on a test are 97, 94, 95. Use a sample size of 3. The mean of the population is Round to two...
