What else can I help you with?
What happens to the distribution of the t-score as the sample size increases?
It approaches a normal distribution.
Why is t score equal to z score in a normal distribution?
Because as the sample size increases the Student's t-distribution approaches the standard normal.
What is safety t score?
Because t-score isn't as accurate as z-score, you should use 40 as a safety sample size, rather than 30 as you would for a z-score.
How do you calculate Z and T scores?
z=(x-mean)/(standard deviation of population distribution/square root of sample size) T-score is for when you don't have pop. standard deviation and must use sample s.d. as a substitute. t=(x-mean)/(standard deviation of sampling distribution/square root of sample size)
When is a t test better than a z score?
When you don't have the population standard deviation, but do have the sample standard deviation. The Z score will be better to do as long as it is possible to do it.

What is the difference between a z score and t score?
A z-score measures how many standard deviations an individual data point is from the mean of a population, assuming the population standard deviation is known and the sample size is large (typically n > 30). In contrast, a t-score is used when the sample size is small (n ≤ 30) or when the population standard deviation is unknown, relying on the sample's standard deviation instead. The t-distribution, which the t-score utilizes, is wider and has heavier tails than the normal distribution, reflecting more uncertainty in smaller samples. As sample sizes increase, the t-distribution approaches the normal distribution, making z-scores more applicable.
When to you use a z-scores or t-scores?
T score is usually used when the sample size is below 30 and/or when the population standard deviation is unknown.

What is a fundamental difference between the t statistic and a z score?
The fundamental difference between the t statistic and a z score lies in the sample size and the underlying population variance. The t statistic is used when the sample size is small (typically n < 30) and the population variance is unknown, making it more appropriate for estimating the mean of a normally distributed population. In contrast, the z score is used when the sample size is large or when the population variance is known, as it assumes a normal distribution of the sample mean. Consequently, the t distribution is wider and has heavier tails than the z distribution, reflecting greater uncertainty in smaller samples.
What is the probability of finding a T value greater than t.845 given that sample size is 95?
There is not enough information in the question to determine if the t-distribution is the appropriate model to use. If it is, then, with, a sample size of 95 the z-score for the Gaussian distribution is a suitable approximation. The probability is 0.199, approx.
When finding a confidence interval for true mean spent of all citizens should you us a z-score or t-score?
If the sample size is less then 30 use the T table, if greater then 30 use the Z table.
Why use the T score?
T-score is used when you don't have the population standard deviation and must use the sample standard deviation as a substitute.
What statistic is produced when the difference between a score and the mean is divided by the standard deviation?
a "T" or a "Z" score. A "T" Score if comparing a sample. A "Z" Score when comparing a population. Remember, a population includes all observation, and a sample includes only a random selection of the population.
When is a t test better than a z score?
When you don't have the population standard deviation, but do have the sample standard deviation. The Z score will be better to do as long as it is possible to do it.
