a) Determine the mean reduction in Blood pressure for subjects on a daily exercise program. b) Determine the median reduction in Blood pressure for subjects with no exercise program. c) Determine the mean reduction in Blood pressure for subjects on a weekly exercise program Choose the correct option
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.

![In a study to investigate the effect of regular physical exercise on the reduction of
high blood pressure in males aged 60-65, the researchers selected at random a
sample of n, = 12 males suffering from high blood pressure in the given age group
and for a two-year period placed the subjects on a daily physical exercise program.
A second sample of n, = 12 males suffering from high blood pressure in the given
age group was selected and again for the two-year period this group of subjects
were placed on a physical exercise program for which they were required to
perform only once a week. Finally a third sample of n, =12 males suffering from
high blood pressure in the given age group was selected. No exercise program
was required for individuals in sample three. At the end of the two-year period the
reduction in blood pressure was measured for each of the subjects in the study and
is presented in the table on the next page.

males aged 60-65 initially suffering from high blood pressure.
