Answer:

The z score is -1.39

Explanation:

Taking into account, that the student score is 75 points, the mean score is 83.5 and the standard deviation is 6.1. The z score is calculated as:


z=(x-m)/(s)

Where x is the score that the student gets, m is the mean score and s is the standard deviation, so the z score is:


z=(75-83.5)/(6.1)=-1.39
