2. Transforming X values into z-scores In preparation for the upcoming school year, a teacher looks at raw test scores on the statewide standardized test for the students in her class. Instead of looking at the scores relative to the norms in the state, the teacher wants to understand the scores relative to the students who will be in the class. To do so, she decides to convert the test scores into 2-scores relative to the mean and standard deviation of...
Everyone in the class takes a test and receives a score, and the average is calculated. Everyone compares their test score to the average test score, and each person’s distance from the mean test score is their deviation. People who had really low test scores or really high test scores will have large distances, or deviations, from the mean, while people who had test scores that were similar to the mean will have small distances, or deviations. If a person’s...

An analysis of the final test scores in this class shows that the scores follow the normal distribution. The mean of the distribution is 85 and the standard deviation is 6. The professor wants to award an A student whose score is in the highest 11% which means 89% of the class will have lower grades. What is the cut-off point (or score) for those students who earn an A versus those that earn a B? In other words, what...
