ramone scores 40 on his history test and 40 on his chemistry test. the class means for both tests is 30. the standard deviation for the history test is 10 and the standard deviation for the chemistry test is 5. on which test did he do better in relation to his peers and why?



Answer :

Ramones’s Chemistry test was much better as it has higher Z-Score than history

For History test, Test score (x) = 40

Mean (μₓ) = 30, Standard deviation (σₓ) = 10

For Chemistry test, Test score (Y) = 40

Mean (μ) =30, Standard deviation (σ) =5

Ramones’s Z-score for History test is given by,

Z-Score = (x-μₓ)/σₓ =(40-30)/10 = 1

Ramones’s Z-score for chemistry test is given by,

Z-Score = (y-μ)/σ =(40-30)/5 = 2

Thus, Ramones’s Chemistry test was much better, because Chemistry test has higher z-score.

Difference in the mean score (α) =μₓ -μ =0

Difference in Z-Score= Z- Zₓ =1
