Yes.

However, a z-score greater than 3 implies either that the outcome is rare (prob = 0.135%) or that some of the assumptions regarding the variable are incorrect. This could be the distribution itself or its parameters.

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

What is the difference between z-score and t-score?

T-scores and z-scores measure the deviation from normal. The normal for T-score is 50 with standard deviation of 10. if the score on t-score is more than 50, it means that the person scored above normal (average), and vise versa. The normal for Z-score is 0. If Z-score is above 0, then it means that person scored above normal (average), and vise versa.

How many students of 1800 will have an IQ score above 109 with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15?

You can find this using a table of z scores.Z = (x - mu) / sZ = (109 - 100) /15 = 9/15 = 3/5 = .6You want the percentage of students having a z score above .6.p = 1 - .7257 = .2743.2743 * 1800 = 493 students with a score above 109


A z-score of plus 1.6 represents?

It is 1.6 standard deviations above the mean.


How do you calculate a raw score from a z score?

z = (x - μ) / σ is the formula where x is the raw score and z is the z-score. μ and σ are the mean and standard deviations and must be known numbers. Multiply both sides by σ zσ = x-μ Add μ to both sides μ + zσ = x x = μ + zσ You calculate the raw score x , given the z-score, μ and σ by using the above formula.


What is the of z-score -1.0?

A z score is a value that is used to indicate the distance of a certain number from the mean of a normally distributed data set. A z score of -1.0 means that the number is one standard deviation below the mean. A z score of +1.0 means that the number is one standard deviation above the mean. Z scores normally range from -4.0 to +4.0. Hope this helps! =)
