Chapter 5.5, Problem 1LC
A set of scores has a mean of μ = 63 and a standard deviation of σ = 8. If these scores are standardized so that the new distribution has μ = 50 and σ = 10, what new value would be obtained for a score of X = 59 from the original distribution?
- a. The score would still be X = 59.
- b. 45
- c. 46
- d. 55

Your personal trainer suggests that you supplement with at least 10 grams of creatine, 39 grams of L-glutamine, and 90 grams of BCAAs each week. You are thinking of combining Xtend and Gainz to provide you with the required nutrients. How many servings of each should you combine to obtain a week's supply that meets your trainer's specifications at the least cost? (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)
