Cats to dogs means that the first number is cats and the second number is dogs. Thus, you have the ratios 2 cats to 5 dogs and 5 cats to 2 dogs which are different.

If they are both ratios of cats to dogs, with the ratio 2 to 5 it would mean there are 2.5x more dogs then there are cats, but with the ratio 5 to 2 it would mean there are 2.5x more cats than there are dogs, in which they are both different.

Assume that a set of test scores is normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 10. In what percentile is

vlabodo [156]

Given:
μ = 70, the mean
σ = 10, the standard deviation

The random variable is x = 65.
Calculate the z-score.
z = (x - μ)/σ = (65 -70)/10 = - 0.5

From standard ables, obtain
P(x<5) = 0.3085 ≈ 30%
The score of 65 is in the 30th percentile.

Answer: 30th
