A scientist planted two groups of seedlings. After six months, she found that the heights for both groups were normally distributed with means and standard deviations as follows:
Group A: Mean = 41.7 cm, Standard Deviation = 2.2 cm
Group B: Mean = 38.6 cm, Standard Deviation = 3.4 cm
For which group does a z-score of 1.5 give a taller plant?
Group A - 45 cm
Group A - 43.2 cm
Group B - 43.7 cm
Group B - 42 cm

Researchers in an early childhood development organization investigated the number of words in the vocabularies of young children. Here are some summary statistics:
18 months, mean = 85 words, standard deviation = 80 words
24 months, mean = 275 words, standard deviation = 120 words
Miku (who is 18 months old) has a vocabulary of 93 words, while Tessa (who is 24 months old) has a vocabulary of 287 words.
Relative to their age, who has a larger vocabulary?
Miku
Tessa
Miku and Tessa have equally sized vocabularies relative to their ages.
It's impossible to say without seeing all of the individual vocabulary sizes.
Which is NOT true about the normal distribution curve?
It is bell-shaped.
The mean, median, and mode are approximately equal
The smaller the standard deviation, the less spread in the curve.
It is asymmetrical.
