Answer: 15.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Average points per game (mean) (m) = 22.5

Standard deviation (sd) = 6.2

Number of point scored in a game is 1.2 standard deviations below the mean, how many points below average was the value

1.2 standard deviations = (1.2 * value of standard deviation) = (1.2 × 6.2) = 7.44

Hence, 1.2 standard deviations below the mean equals :

Mean - 7.44

22.5 - 7.44 = 15.06

Hence, score = 15.06
