What is the standard deviation of this data set? (Report answer using the rules suggested in class: 2
more d.p. than the data.)
SD =
What is the z-score of the value 40.3 in this data set? (Report answer accurate to 3 decimal places
with appropriate rounding. ALSO REMEMBER that it is best to use the unrounded M and SD for
this calculation, not the values reported above.)
