Acredit score is used by Credil agencies (such as mortgage companies and banks) to assess the creditworthiness of individuals. Values range from 300 to 850, with a credit score over 700 considered to be a quality credit risk. According to a survey, the mean credit score is 7075. A credit analyst wondered whether high-income individuals (incomes in excess of S100.000 per year) had higher credit scores. He obtained a random sample of 38 high income individuals and found the sample...
