Jenny performed better in statistic test as compared to history exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

AP Statistics

Mean, μ = 84

Standard Deviation, σ = 4.5

AP U.S. History

Mean, μ = 75

Standard Deviation, σ = 8.2

We are given that the distribution of  scores are a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

P(AP statistic score of 95)

P(x < 95)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(AP U.S. History of 90)

P(x < 90)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

Jenny did better on AP statistics, because she scored better than 99.3% of the students on statistics exam that is her percentile is 99.3% as compared to 96.6% of the students on the history exam where her percentile is 96.6%.
