Question

A psychologist has designed a questionnaire to measure individuals' aggressiveness. Suppose that the scores on the questionnaire are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 100. Suppose also that exactly 5%
of the scores exceed 750. Find the mean of the distribution of scores. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to at least one decimal place.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
