Answer:

Control Group.

Step-by-step explanation:

A control group, in research, is a group that is not experimented by the researchers in an experiment. A control group is the opposite of an experimental group, on which the independent variable is performed. In other words, an independent variable is held on 'control' in control group.

<u>In the given scenario, the experiment is being performed to test a new physical therapy. To do so, the researchers divided the group in three groups, in which, one group did not receive any treatment; the treatment is held on 'control' in this group.</u>

So, according to the definition provided, the group that did not receive the treatment will be called a control group, thus the correct answer.

A community college has a math placement exam that has a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 8.2. If a student takes the exam

Answer:

The score that cuts off the bottom 2.5% is 48.93.

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:

$\mu = 65, \sigma = 8.2$
