The numbers are from the chart in our question booklet. After completing this task I would get a Physics z-score of 2.75 and a Math score of 2.5 for Francine. For Victor I got 2.11 on physics and 2.67 for math. It is obvious that Francine dominated in the Math department, while Victor was victorious in the physics department.nemo44469https://www.blogger.com/profile/00318979540055997483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971711218634132800.post-75726312491295351542007-05-18T12:24:00.001-06:002007-05-18T12:24:00.001-06:00I came to the conclusion that victor should receiv...I came to the conclusion that victor should receive the scholarship. First i figured out the z-scores of both students in both math and physics. Victor got 2.6 repeating in math, and 2.1 repeating in physics. Francine got 2.5 in math, and 2.75 in physics. I then took the z scores and figured out the average of their scores. Victor came out on top, and since his entrance exam was also higher, he should get the scolarship.*Steph*https://www.blogger.com/profile/00368936390328265396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971711218634132800.post-28691510347928961972007-05-18T12:24:00.000-06:002007-05-18T12:24:00.000-06:00I came to the conclusion that victor should receiv...I came to the conclusion that victor should receive the scholarship.

I figured that out using the Z= formula. And Victor got higher in the entrance exam, but I still think that francine gets the scholarship.ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07205735195045047564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971711218634132800.post-66381787568840918522007-05-18T12:20:00.000-06:002007-05-18T12:20:00.000-06:00im not good at this either, but for question 8 I d...im not good at this either, but for question 8 I did shadenorm(.91,.95,.93,.87,.90,.94)....and i got a thing that said argument. But, i did make some assumptions from seeing what we were shown yesterday. I assumed that Victor would be the choice out of the two because he had the overall highest average.rišsªhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06627993309207695404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971711218634132800.post-50361242823511460132007-05-18T12:19:00.001-06:002007-05-18T12:19:00.001-06:00For Francines, z-score of math I got 2.75, and for...For Francines, z-score of math I got 2.75, and for her physics I got 2.11. Then Victors, z-score of math I got 2.5, and then for his physics 2.67.

Then I figured out the z-score for Victor's physics(2.11) and math(2.67) mark. I had a hard time figuring out who I would pick for the entrance scholarship because the z-scores were so close.Jess15https://www.blogger.com/profile/05978469297632462837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971711218634132800.post-34613080785366707682007-05-18T12:12:00.000-06:002007-05-18T12:12:00.000-06:00Mr. Max for number 8 I took Francine and found out...Mr. Max for number 8 I took Francine and found out the z-score for both Physics and Math, and also did the same for Victor. I took the totals of Francine's z-scores from both Phsyics and Math and added them together and did the same for Victor. I got a total z-score for Francine was 4.75, and for Victor I got 4.78. So I would recommend Victor to get te scholarship.

To come to this conclusion I found the number of standard deviations from average each student was in each area that is taken into account(their grade 12 math and physics classes). I then looked at who had a higher average overall by adding their scores together and dividing them by three. Francine had an average of 91.33% and Victor had an average of 92%Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
