1. A common exit examination is given to 400 students in a university. The scores are normally
distributed and the mean is 78 with a standard deviation of 6. Darius had a score of 72 and
Sophia a score of 84. What is the corresponding z-scores of Darius and Sophia? How many
students would be expected to score between the scores of Darius and Sophia? Explain your
answer.
2. Jethro obtained a score of 40 in his Mathematics test and 34 in his English test. The Class
mean score in Mathematics is 45 with a standard deviation of 4 while in English, the mean score
is 50 with a standard deviation of 7. On which test did Jethro do better compare to the rest of the
class? Explain.
