velocity has a z-score of 2.5, what was his velocity?
A. 100 km/hr
B. 105 km/hr
C. 110 km/hr
D. 115 km/hr
How do you find this pre-test? Did you encounter both familiar and
unfamiliar terms, symbols and notation? Kindly compare your answer in the
Answer Key on the last part of this module.
If you obtain 100% or a perfect score, skip the module and immediately
move to the next module. While in the event you missed a point, please
proceed on the module as it will enrich your knowledge in normal
distribution, especially in illustrating the normal random variables and its
characteristics.

What is It
Was the activity fun and interesting? How did you manage to derive the
formula? Are you successful in completing the table?
The activity allows you to manipulate the given data and the missing
value through derivation. In this case, you convert the raw score (x) into the
𝑥− 𝜇
standard score (z) using the formula 𝑧 = 𝜎 . You substitute the given
values and uses properties of equality and algebraic rules to obtain the
needed data.

The formula used in converting a random variable x to a standard
normal variable z is:
𝑥− 𝜇
𝑧 =

Example 4.
Solution:
𝑥 = 𝑧𝜎 + 𝜇
= -1.35(5 min) + 60 min
= -6.75 min + 60 min
𝒙 = 𝟓𝟑. 𝟐𝟓 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒖𝒕𝒆𝒔
Example 5.
Suppose you have the population values 40 and 70 and that their
corresponding z – scores are -1 and 2, respectively.
1. Is it possible to determine the population’s mean and standard
deviation?
2. If so, what are these values?
Solution:
6
Use these given and substitute to the formula (12-2), we have
𝑥1 = 𝑧1 𝜎 + 𝜇 𝑥2 = 𝑧2 𝜎 + 𝜇
40 = −2𝜎 + 𝜇 70 = 1𝜎 + 𝜇
Note: In this example, we do not have 𝜎1 and 𝜎2 , and 𝜇1 and 𝜇2 since we are
describing a single population. Thus, 𝜎1 = 𝜎2 = 𝜎 and 𝜇1 = 𝜇2 = 𝜇.
Furthermore, we need to review our algebra specifically on systems of linear
equation. So,
40 = −2𝜎 + 𝜇 equation 1
70 = 1𝜎 + 𝜇 equation 2
40 = −2𝜎 + 𝜇 equation 1
70 = 1𝜎 + 𝜇 equation 2
30 = 1𝜎 − (−2𝜎)
30 = 3𝜎 the difference
1 1 1
(30 = 3𝜎) multiply by
3 3 3
10 = 𝜎 simplify
40 = −2𝜎 + 𝜇 ⇒ 40 = −2(10) + 𝜇 ⇒ 60 = 𝜇
70 = 1𝜎 + 𝜇 ⇒ 70 = 1(10) + 𝜇 ⇒ 60 = 𝜇
Therefore,
1. It is possible to determine the population’s mean and standard
deviation given only the raw score (x) and its corresponding
standard score (z).
2. The mean and standard deviation of the population is 60 and 10,
respectively.
