Instead of looking at the scores relative to the norms in the state, the teacher wants to understand the scores relative to the students who will be in the class. To do so, he decides to convert the test scores into z-scores relative to the mean and standard deviation of the students in the class. The mean test score in his upcoming class is 102, and the standard deviation is 19.2 The following are the scores for some (not all) of his students. Complete the table using the dropdown menus. Student Test Score z-score A 126 1.25 B 98 C 97 -0.26 D 88 E 66 -1.88 F 95 G 111 0.47 H 105 The teacher wants to identify those students who may need an extra challenge or extra help. As a first cut, he decides to look at students who have z- scores above z = 2.50 or below z = -2.50. Identify the test score corresponding to each of the following z-scores. Round to the nearest whole number. For z = 2.50, test score For z = -2.50, test score
