Question 5 • CREDIT RE-SEAT MNPS Integrated Math III IC S2 26-27
Use the z-statistic formula for a sample mean: z = (sample mean − population mean) ÷ (population standard deviation ÷ √n). Substituting the values gives z = (2.3 − 2.7) ÷ (0.4 ÷ √15) ≈ −3.87. The correct choice is A, −3.87; the negative sign reflects that the teammates’ mean is below the American average.
