    Most scenerios for Z scores  

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement "Most scenarios for Z scores are true" is correct. Z scores are a statistical measure that represents how many standard deviations an individual data point is from the mean of a data set. Z scores can be used to compare different data points from different distributions. In most scenarios, Z scores are used to standardize data and make comparisons easier. Therefore, the statement is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    The three rules of the MEAN are: 1: All #- mean then sum= 0, 2) is exact middle on bell curve, 3) most values are close to it

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because the three rules of the MEAN are accurately described. The first rule states that if all the values in a data set are subtracted by the mean and then summed, the result will be zero. The second rule states that the mean is the exact middle point on a bell curve, also known as the normal distribution. The third rule states that most values in a data set are close to the mean. Therefore, the given statement accurately represents the three rules of the MEAN.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Standard deviation 

    • Step 1: substract the #s - the Mean

    • Step 2: Take answers and SQUARE them

    • 3) Add all the values

    • step 4: Divide by n or N

    • Step 5: Square root the #

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Step 1: substract the #s - the Mean
    A. Step 2: Take answers and SQUARE them
    A. 3) Add all the values
    A. step 4: Divide by n or N
    A. Step 5: Square root the #
    Explanation
    The given answer provides the correct steps to calculate the standard deviation. Step 1 involves subtracting the numbers from the mean. Step 2 requires squaring each of the answers obtained in the previous step. Step 3 involves adding all the squared values together. Step 4 requires dividing the sum by the total number of values (n or N). Finally, step 5 involves taking the square root of the obtained result. This sequence of steps accurately describes the process of calculating the standard deviation.
