The top three finishers in the Women’s 200m Dash at each Olympics dating back to 1988 have a mean of 22.04 seconds and a standard deviation of 0.24 seconds. In 2000, Pauline Davis won gold with a time of 22.27 seconds. What was her z-score? Remember to round z-scores to 2 decimal places.

represent the mean in seconds for the 200 m Dash in 1988

represent the deviation in seconds for the 200 m Dash in 1988

We assume that the parameters are the same for 2000. And we know that Pauline Davis won gold with a time of 22.27 seconds, we want to find the z score so we can use the following formula:

And replacing we got:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the follwing parameters given:

represent the mean in seconds for the 200 m Dash in 1988

represent the deviation in seconds for the 200 m Dash in 1988

We assume that the parameters are the same for 2000. And we know that Pauline Davis won gold with a time of 22.27 seconds, we want to find the z score so we can use the following formula:

And replacing we got:

-1/2 +2
