SAT Scores Suppose that the mathematics SAT scores for high school seniors for a specific year have a mean of 456 and a standard
deviation of 100 and are approximately normally distributed. If a subgroup of these high school seniors, those who are in the National Honor Society, is selected, would you expect the distribution of scores to have the same mean and standard deviation? Explain your answer.
The distribution of scores would not have the same mean and standard deviation
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
mean=456
Standard deviation=100
mathematics SAT scores for high school seniors for a specific year have a mean of 456 and a standard deviation of 100 and are approximately normally distributed
Therefore, we can conclude that a subgroup of these high school seniors would not to be a perfect representation, hence, the distribution of scores would not have the same mean and standard deviation.
