Question

A distribution has a mean of 16 and a standard deviation of 6. What is the Z score that corresponds with 34?

Answer 1

Z = 3

Explanation:

In a normal distribution, the Z score that corresponds with a data point x is calculated using the formula;

`Z=(x-mean)/(standard deviation)`

For the case given, the z score will be;

`Z=(34-16)/(6)=3`
