b) An achievement test was administered to a class of 20,000 students. The mean score was 80 and the standard deviation was 11. If Lingard scored 72 in the test, how many students did better than him

Respuesta :

Answer: 15328

Step-by-step explanation:

The following can be deduced from the information given:

N = 20000

μ = 80

σ = 11

P(X>72) = 1 - P (X<72)

= 1 - P(Z < 72-80/11)

= 1 - P(Z < -8/11)

= 1 - P(Z < 0.7272)

= 1 - 0.2336 = 0.7664

Therefore, the number of students that were better than Lingard n(X > 72) will be:

= 20000 × 0.7664

= 15328
