For an Economics test the mean score is 100 and the standard deviation is 10, and for an Accounting test the score is 50 and the standard deviation is 4. You are given the test scores of a student who took both tests. Determine on which test the student had a better score. Enter E if the student did better on the Economics test Enter A if the student did better on the Accounting test Enter S if the student did relatively the same on both tests. A student scores 111 on the Economics test and 54.8 on the Accounting test. The student did better/same on test.
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.
