Empirical Rule for Normal Distributions)1(])[(222-- nnXfXfnsmm3.4 Measures of Positionz scoreA student scored 65 on a calculus test that had a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10; she scored 30 on a history test with a mean of 25 and a standard deviation of 5. Compare her relative positions on the two tests.Interpreting Z ScoresExampleCompare Joe’s height of 78 in. to Susan’s height of 76 in. Use the following information: Men have heights with a mean of 69.0 in. and st. dev. of 2.8 in.; women have heights with mean of 63.6 in. and a st. dev. of 2.5 in.Percentiles, Quartiles, and DecilesPercentile FormulaExampleA teacher gives a 20-point test to 10 students.
