Use z scores to compare the given values.

The tallest living man at one time had a height of 254 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 50.3 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 170.66 cm and a standard deviation of 8.33 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was moreextreme?

Since the z score for the tallest man is z=

nothing

and the z score for the shortest man is z=

nothing

, the

shortest

tallest

man had the height that was more extreme.

(Round to two decimalplaces.)
