Course & Section Score:
I. Round each z – score to the nearest hundredth.

1. A data set has mean of 75 and standard deviation of 11.5. find the z – score for each of the
following:

x=85 , z = 85-75 X=50 , z = 50-75

-------- = 0.869 -------- = -1.739
11.55 11.5

95-75
--------- = 1.739
11.5

2. A data set has mean of 212 and standard deviation of 40. find the z – score for each of the
following:

a. x=200 b. x=224
c. x=300 d. x=100
3. A data set has mean of 6.8 and standard deviation of 1.9. find the z – score for each of the
following:

a. x=6.2 b. x=7.2
c. x=9.0 d. x=5.0
4. A data set has mean of 4010 and standard deviation of 115. find the z – score for each of the
following:

a. x=3840 b. x=4200
c. x=4300 d. x=4030

II. Group of teachers’ researchers would like to know what the correlation between the number of hours
a pupil sleep and the number of hours the pupils finish his/her SLM (Self Learning Module). The data
gathered are presented below. Complete the table and draw conclusion from the computed linear
correlation (r).
