Barbara and James are in two separate classes taught by Mrs. Oshinsky. In Barbara’s class, the mean grade on a poetry test is a 74 and the standard deviation is 8. In James’s class, the mean grade is a 79 and the standard deviation is 3. Barbara and James both earn a 92 on their tests. (A) Which student performed better in comparison to his or her class? You must show calculations to justify your response, or no credit will...

The overall grade of a statistics class has a normal distribution with mean of 85.5 and standard deviation of 5.5. The instructor decides letter grades of students so that 5% fails the class. Find the minimum overall grade a student should get so that the student does not fail the class. (keep 1 decimal place)
5. North Carolina State University posts the complete grade distributions for its courses online. The distribution of grades for all students in all sections of Accounting 210 in the spring semester of 2001 was Grade Probability .18 32 34 09 07 a. Using the scale A -4, B-3, C-2, D- 1, and F 0, let Xbe the grade of a randomly chosen b. Let X denote the mean grade for a random sample of 50 students from Accounting 210. Since...
Professor Smith took a sample of 196 students from her morning class and a sample of 171 students from her evening class. On Exam 1, all those sampled from the morning class got a 66 while those sampled from the evening class averaged a 67 with a variance of 178. If Professor Smith combines these two samples. Question 2 What is the combined Exam 1 average? Question 3AWhat is the combined Exam 1 median? Question 3B What is the shape...
It has been seen that the mean grade point average for students who live on campus is 2.75 with standard deviation of 0.43, while that of students who live off campus is 2.6 with standard deviation of 0.68. 7 sophomores are randomly selected from campus dormitories at a college and 20 sophomores are randomly selected from students who live off campus. The mean grade point averages of the two groups are compared. The expected difference in the sample grade point...
1. A professor grades students on a normal distribution. For any grade x, based on a course mean and standard deviation developed over years of testing, the following scale applies A': course grade 1.6 standard deviation above the mean 'B': course grade between 0.45 and 1.6 standard deviations above the mean C': course grade t 0.45 standard deviations from the mean. Assuming "large sample size", what percentage of students will receive an A in course? 2.61 % 3.78 % 4.95...
Professor smith took a sample of 214 students from her morning class and a sample of 115 students from her evening class. On Exam 1, all those sampled from the morning class got a 68, while those sampled from the evening class averaged a 68 with a variance of 158. If professor smith combines these two samples.... 1) What is the combined Exam 1 Average? 2) What is the combined Exam 1 Median? 3) what is the shape of the...
The final exam grade of a statistics class has a normal distribution with mean of 75.5 and standard deviation of 7. Find the two cutoff values which separate the middle 20% of final exam grades in this class. Lower cutoff is (keep 1 decimal place) Upper cutoff is (keep 1 decimal place)
