Dear Math Helper,

Answer:

n = 98, that is, she scored at the 98th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

She scored 38, so X = 38

Test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 25 and a standard deviation of 6.4.

This means that \mu = 25, \sigma = 6.4

Find the percentile:

We have to find the pvalue of Z. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{38 - 25}{6.4}

Z = 2.03

Z = 2.03 has a pvalue of 0.98(rounding to two decimal places).

So n = 98, that is, she scored at the 98th percentile.

You can look for the number 16 on the x-axis. (bottom line) and put a finger there. Then, look for 19 on the y -axis (left line) and put a finger there. Trace your left finger to the right and your right hand up until they meet. That is (16,19)
