A student in the COBU260 course scores 110 points out of a possible 110 in the first half of the semester. If there are 140 outstanding points that a student can earn during the second half of the semester, what are the minimum points out of 140 the student must earn during the second half of the semester to receive an “A” grade (90% final percentage score)? Specify your answer as points to be earned during the second half of the semester; do not divide by 140. State your result/answer as an integer value.
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.
Question 3
A student in the COBU260 course scores 110 points out of a possible 110 in the first half of the semester. If there are 140 outstanding points that a student can earn during the second half of the semester, what are the minimum points out of 140 the student must earn during the second half of the semester to receive an “A” grade (90% final percentage score)? Specify your answer as points to be earned during the second half of the semester; do not divide by 140. State your result/answer as an integer value.
