Question

What is the standard deviation of a normal distribution who meet us 35 in which an X value of 23 has a Z score of -1.63

Answer 1

7.362

Explanation:

Given :

Mean = 35

Score, x value = 23

Zscore = - 1.63

Recall the Zscore formula :

Zscore = (X - mean) / standard deviation

-1.63 = (23 - 35) / standard deviation

-1.63 = - 12 / standard deviation

standard deviation * - 1.63 = - 12

Divide both sides by - 1.63

Standard deviation = - 12 / - 1.63

Standard deviation = 7.362
