The information in this box is used in questions 7, and 8. All current-carrying wires produce clectromagnetic (EM) radiation, including the clectrical wiring running into, through, and out of our homes. High-frequency EM radiation is thought to be a cause of cancer; the lower frequencies associated with houschold current are generally assumed to be harmless. To investigate this, rescarchers visited the addresscs of children in the Denver area who had died of some form of cancer (leukemia lymphoma, or some other type) and classified the wiring configuration outside the building as cither a high- current configuration (HCC) or as a low-current configuration (LCC).

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.
