Question

Suppose that in a particular sample, the mean is 70.07 and the standard deviation is 10.27. what is the z score that corresponds to a raw score of 80?

Answer 1

To find the z score, we need to use the following formula: (raw score - Mean)/ standard deviation. We know that the raw score is 80, the standard deviation is 10.27, and the mean is 70.27, so plugging in those values gives us: (80 - 70.27)/10.27 = 0.9474
