Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, the regional campus had the more successful year in student recruitment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The main campus incoming class has a mean of 3,507 and a standard deviation of 375. There were 3,838 incoming students on the main campus.

We have to find Z, considering X = 3838, \mu = 3507, \sigma = 375

So

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

Z = \frac{3838 - 3508}{375}

Z = 0.88

Regional campus incoming class has a mean of 740 and a standard deviation of 114. 848 students on the regional campus.

We have to find Z when X = 848, \mu = 740, \sigma = 114.

So

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

Z = \frac{848 - 740}{114}

Z = 0.95

Which had the more successful year in student recruitment based on z scores?

Due to the higher z-score, the regional campus had the more successful year in student recruitment.
