On a test that has a normal distribution, a score of 41 falls three standard deviation below the mean, and a score of 73folle one standard deviation above the moon. Determine the mean of the test.

Answer :

On a test that has a normal distribution, a score of 41 falls three standard deviation below the mean, and a score of 73

folle one standard deviation above the moon. Determine the mean of the test.

we know that

3=(mean-41)standard deviation -------> first equation

1=(73-mean)/standard deviation ------> second equation

solve the system of equations

Isolate deviation standard

sd=(mean-41)/3

sd=73-mean

73-mean=(mean-41)/3

219-3mean=mean-41

3mean+mean=219+41

4 mean=178

mean=44.5
