Example 4

• Luz scored 90 in an English test and 70 in a Physics test. Scores in the

English test have a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 10. Scores
in the physics test have a mean of 60 and a standard deviation of 8. In
which subject was her standing better?
• For English For Physics
Example 5
• In a Science test, the mean score is 42 and the standard deviation is 5.
Assuming the scores are normally distributed , what percent of the
score is
• a. greater than 48?
• Less than 50?
• C. between 30 and 48?
A. Greater than 48
Convert score 48 to Z score
B. Less than 50?
Convert score 50 to Z score
C. Between 30 and 48?
C. Between 30 and 48?
 In a math test ,the mean score is 45 and the standard
deviation is 4. Assuming normality, ehat is the probalility
that a score picked at random will lie,
a. Above score 50?
B. Below score 38?
