This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Consider a set of data in which the sample mean is 73.4 and the sample standard deviation is 4.9. Calculate the z-score given that x = 69.5.
Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer: the z-score is -0.80
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that;
mean μ = 73.4
standard deviation σ = 4.9
x = 69.5
z-score = ?
z = (x - μ) / σ
we substitute
z = (69.5 - 73.4) / 4.9
z = -3.9 / 4.9
z = - 0.7959 ≈ -0.80 { 2 decimal places }
Therefore, the z-score is -0.80
