The Standard Normal Distribution · Try It 3

Use the information in to answer the following questions:

(a) Suppose a 15-to 18-year-old male from Chile was 176 cm tall from 2009–2010. The z-score when x = 176 cm is z = _______. This z-score tells you that x = 176 cm is ________ standard deviations to the ________ (right or left) of the mean _____ (What is the mean?).
(b) Suppose that the height of a 15-to 18-year-old male from Chile in 2009–2010 has a z-score of z = –2. What is the male’s height? The z-score (z = –2) tells you that the male’s height is ________ standard deviations to the __________ (right or left) of the mean.
