A sample of n = 4 scores is selected from a population with μ = 100 and σ = 20. If the sample mean is M = 110, what is the z-score for this sample mean?
-
the z-score formula in this case is:
z = (M - μ)/(σ/sqrt(n))
So,
z = (110-100)/(20/sqrt(4)) = 10/(20/2) = 10/10 = 1
z = (M - μ)/(σ/sqrt(n))
So,
z = (110-100)/(20/sqrt(4)) = 10/(20/2) = 10/10 = 1
