Question

Adult men have heights with a mean of 69.0 inches and a standard deviation of 2.8 inches. Find the height of a man with a z-score of 0.2 (to 2 decimal places)

Answer 1

Answer:

69.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (m) = 69.0

Standard deviation (s) = 2.8

Zscore = 0.2

Find the corresponding height (x) ;

Using the relation :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

0.2 = (x - 69.0) / 0.2

0.04 = x - 69.0

0.04 + 69.0 = x

69.04 = x

Hence, the height of a man with a Zscore of 0.2 is 69.04
