Answer:
lowest score is 5.35531
highest score is x=5.45961
Step by step Explanation:
· A Z-score reffered to as a numerical measurement that identifies a value's relationship to the mean of a group of values. Z-score is usually measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean.
We were to Consider a value to be significantly low if its z score less than or equal to minus2 or consider a value to be significantly high if its z score is greater than or equal to 2
the z-score is given by:
z-score=(x-μ)/σ
where:
x=score
μ=mean=5.45961
σ=std deviation=0.05215
To calculate the lowest cost when the the z-score is -2, we have
[tex]-2=(x-5.45961)/0.05215[/tex]
To get the value of x then we collect like terms
-0.1043 = =(x-5.45961)
x=-0.1043 + 5.45961
[tex]X=5.35531[/tex]
therefore, the lowest score is 5.35531
Let us calculate the highest score when the z-score is 2 ,
then highest score will be:
[tex]2=(x-5.45961)/0.05215[/tex]
To get the value of x then we collect like terms
0.1043 = =(x-5.45961)
x=0.1043 + 5.45961
[tex]X=5.45961[/tex]
therefore the highest score is x=5.45961
