When to you use a z scores or t scores?

If the distribution is Gaussian (or Normal) use z-scores. If it is Student's t, then use t-scores.


Are normal scores the same as z-scores?

They should be.


What is one advantage of transforming X values into z-scores?

True or False, One major advantage of transforming X values into z-scores is that the z-scores always form a normal distribution


Is the Z-test the same as Z-scores?

No, the Z-test is not the same as a Z-score. The Z-test is where you take the Z-score and compare it to a critical value to determine if the null hypothesis will be rejected or fail to be rejected.


Are all standard scores z-scores in statistics?

Yes, although the z-scores associated with p-values of 0.01 and 0.05 have special significance, perhaps mostly for historical reasons, all possible z-scores from negative infinity to positive infinity have meaning in statistical theory and practice.


In a standard normal distribution about percent of the scores fall above a z score of 300?

A Z score of 300 is an extremely large number as the z scores very rarely fall above 4 or below -4. About 0 percent of the scores fall above a z score of 300.


How do you find normal distribution of z-scores?

z-scores are distributed according to the standard normal distribution. That is, with the parameters: mean 0 and variance 1.


What z-score separates the top 10 percent from the rest of the scores?

z = 1.281551


What is a Z Score?

A z-score is a means to compare rank from 2 different sets of data by converting the individual scores into a standard z-score. The formula to convert a value, X, to a z-score compute the following: find the difference of X and the mean of the date, then divide the result by the standard deviation of the data.


Do z-scores have a units of measure?

No, they do not. They are pure numbers.


What is the formula for the volume of a pizza?

If the height (thickness) of the pizza is a, and the radius is z, then the formula is pi*z*z*a.


Stacey's average score on three maths tests is 84 Her last two test scores were 79 and 93 What was her first test score?

To find Stacey's first test score, we can use the formula for average: (sum of all scores) / (total number of scores). Stacey's total score on three tests is 84 x 3 = 252. Her last two test scores total 79 + 93 = 172. To find her first test score, we subtract the total of the last two tests from the total score: 252 - 172 = 80. Therefore, Stacey's first test score was 80.
