A data set has a mean of 72 and a standard deviation of 3.5. The z-score for a data point is -1.2. What is the data point?

D. The data point is 2.5 standard deviations away from 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score is the measure of how many number of standard deviations, the data point, is away from the mean. It also measures how many standard deviations below or above the population mean, a raw score is.

Given, a set of data has a mean (μ) of 0.5 and a standard deviation (σ) of 0.01 with a data point of the set has a z-score of 2.5.

i.e the data point is 2.5 standard deviations away from the mean 0.5.

Hope this helped!
