area under the curve

3. The mean time for a group of runners on the 200 meter dash was 27 seconds with a standard deviation of 1.2. What percent of runners had a time that was less than 25.8 seconds?

• 47.5%

• 15.87%

• 68%

• 83.85%

A z-score tells you...

• the standard deviation of a sampling distribution.
• the original raw score on which it is based.
• if the distribution it comes from is normal.
• how many standard deviations away from the mean a score lies.
