On an exam with u=52 you have a score of x=44. Which value for the standard deviation would give you the highest position in the class distribution
Added by Ryan C.
Step 1
You have a mean score (u) of 52 and your score (x) is 44. To determine your position in the class distribution, we need to consider how far your score is from the mean in relation to the standard deviation (σ). Show more…

On an exam, with n = 52, you have scored X = 56. Which value gives you the highest position in the class distribution? The standard deviation would be determined so that σ = 10. What is the Z-score corresponding to a population with a mean of 1295 and a standard deviation of 0.25?

The scores on a college entrance exam have an approximate bell distribution with mean, μ = 52 points and a standard deviation, σ = 11 points. Let X represent a random score on a college entrance exam. (a) Draw a well labeled picture using the Empirical rule. (b) About 95% of the x values lie between what two values? (c) Between 19 and 52 what % of x values lie? (d) Between 63 and 85 what % of x values lie? (e) What % of x values are fewer than 63? (f) What % of x values are at least 74?
