1720 - 1040 = 680
680/7 = 97.1
I would put them in intervals of 100
First of all, you need to come to an understanding of what you mean by "compare that score to the population." Often, that will mean determining the percentile rank of the score.
To determine the percentile rank of a raw score, you first nomalize it by determining the number of standard deviations it lies from the mean. That is, you subtract the population mean and divide that difference by the population standard deviation. Now, you have what is referred to as a "z-score".
Using a table of standard normal probability functions (or an equivalent calculator or app), you look up the cumulative distribution value corresponding to the z-score you have. This number between 0 and 1 (0% and 100%) will be the percentile rank of the score, the fraction of the population that has raw scores below the raw score you started with.
Slope = m
Equation to find slope is:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
2 points:
(4,-2) 4 = x1 and -2 = y1
(8,5) 8 = x2 and 5 = y2
So...
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (5 - (-2)) / (8 - 4)
m = 7 / 4 or 1.75
Therefore, the slope of the line is 7/4 OR 1.75.
P(person has less than a high school education) = 0.12. This is directly from the table.
P(person has at least a bachelors degree: Hard to say for certain, because some of the data in your illustration was cut off.
378 divided by 3 = 126
So your answer is 126
