Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 4P
For a population with μ= 40 and α = 8:
- a. Find the z-score for each of the following X values.
{Note: You should be able to find these values using the definition of a z-score You should not need to use a formula or do any serious calculations.)
X =44 X = 4H X = 56
X = 38 X = 34 X = 32
- b. Find the score (X value) that corresponds to each of the following z-scores. (Again, you should not need a formula or any serious calculations.)
z = 1.00 z = 0.25 z = 1.50
z= -0.50 z = -1.25 z = -2.50
