The average math SAT score is 521 with a standard deviation of 118. A particular high school claims that its students have unusually high math SAT scores. A random sample of 60 students from this school was selected, and the mean math SAT score was 565. Is the high school justified in its claim? Explain

No or Yes, because the z-score is (_________) is unusual or usual since it does not lie or lies within the range of a usual event, namely within ( 1standard deviation, 2 standard deviation, or 3 standard deviation) of the mean of the sample means. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Definition Definition Measure of central tendency that is the average of a given data set. The mean value is evaluated as the quotient of the sum of all observations by the sample size. The mean, in contrast to a median, is affected by extreme values. Very large or very small values can distract the mean from the center of the data. Arithmetic mean: The most common type of mean is the arithmetic mean. It is evaluated using the formula: μ = 1 N ∑ i = 1 N x i Other types of means are the geometric mean, logarithmic mean, and harmonic mean. Geometric mean: The nth root of the product of n observations from a data set is defined as the geometric mean of the set: G = x 1 x 2 ... x n n Logarithmic mean: The difference of the natural logarithms of the two numbers, divided by the difference between the numbers is the logarithmic mean of the two numbers. The logarithmic mean is used particularly in heat transfer and mass transfer. ln x 2 − ln x 1 x 2 − x 1 Harmonic mean: The inverse of the arithmetic mean of the inverses of all the numbers in a data set is the harmonic mean of the data. 1 1 x 1 + 1 x 2 + ...
