The document discusses z-scores and how they can be used to compare scores on different tests or subjects. It provides the formula for calculating z-scores and examples of calculating z-scores from raw scores, means, and standard deviations. Practice problems are also included to demonstrate calculating z-scores.
The document discusses z-scores and how they are used to standardize scores in a normal distribution. A z-score represents the number of standard deviations a data point is from the mean. It is calculated by subtracting the mean from the data value and dividing by the standard deviation. Examples are given to demonstrate how to calculate z-scores and use them to determine percentiles and the percentage of cases above or below a given score.
The document discusses measures of central tendency for ungrouped and grouped data. It defines mean, median, and mode, and provides examples of calculating each for ungrouped and grouped data sets. Formulas and step-by-step workings are shown for finding the mean, median, and mode of grouped data using frequency distributions.
1) Z-scores are a way to standardize scores on a test or other variable by expressing them in terms of the mean and standard deviation.
2) A z-score tells you how many standard deviations an individual score is above or below the mean.
3) Standardizing scores using z-scores allows direct comparisons of scores even when tests or variables have different means and standard deviations.
The document discusses the normal curve and its key properties. A normal curve is a bell-shaped distribution that is symmetrical around the mean value, with half of the data falling above and half below the mean. The standard deviation measures how spread out the data is from the mean. In a normal distribution, 68% of the data lies within 1 standard deviation of the mean, 95% within 2 standard deviations, and 99.7% within 3 standard deviations, following the 68-95-99.7 rule.
The document discusses the standard normal distribution. It defines the standard normal distribution as having a mean of 0, a standard deviation of 1, and a bell-shaped curve. It provides examples of how to find probabilities and z-scores using the standard normal distribution table or calculator. For example, it shows how to find the probability of an event being below or above a given z-score, or between two z-scores. It also shows how to find the z-score corresponding to a given cumulative probability.
This document discusses key concepts about the normal distribution and z-scores, including:
- Approximately 68%, 95%, and 99% of scores in a normal distribution fall within 1, 2, and 3 standard deviations of the mean, respectively.
- A z-score describes how many standard deviations a raw score is above or below the mean, and allows comparison of scores from different distributions.
- The normal curve table lists percentages of scores associated with different z-scores and can be used to find percentages of scores above or below a given value.
In statistics, the standard score is the (signed) number of standard deviations an observation or datum is above the mean. Thus, a positive standard score represents a datum above the mean, while a negative standard score represents a datum below the mean. It is a dimensionless quantity obtained by subtracting the population mean from an individual raw score and then dividing the difference by the population standard deviation. This conversion process is called standardizing or normalizing (however, "normalizing" can refer to many types of ratios; see normalization (statistics) for more).Standard scores are also called z-values, z-scores, normal scores, and standardized variables; the use of "Z" is because the normal distribution is also known as the "Z distribution". They are most frequently used to compare a sample to a standard normal deviate (standard normal distribution, with μ = 0 and σ = 1), though they can be defined without assumptions of normality.
This document discusses z-scores and how they are used to standardize distributions. A z-score specifies the position of a data point within a distribution by measuring its distance from the mean in units of standard deviations. The mean of a standardized distribution with z-scores is 0 and the standard deviation is 1. Converting raw scores to z-scores transforms distributions to have the same shape while accounting for different means and standard deviations. Z-scores allow for comparison of data points from different distributions.

The normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution that is symmetric and bell-shaped. It is defined by its mean and standard deviation. Many real-world variables are approximately normally distributed. The standard normal distribution refers to a normal distribution with a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1. The normal distribution is commonly used to model variables and calculate probabilities related to areas under the normal curve.
The document discusses properties of normal distributions and the standard normal distribution. It provides examples of finding probabilities and values associated with normal distributions. The key points are:
- Normal distributions are continuous and bell-shaped. The mean, median and mode are equal.
- The standard normal distribution has a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1.
- Probabilities under the normal curve can be found using z-scores and the standard normal table.
- Values like z-scores can be determined by finding the corresponding cumulative area in the standard normal table.
The document discusses standard scores and normal distributions. It defines standard scores as transformed raw scores that allow comparison across different scales by putting them on a common scale. It then focuses on z-scores, which convert values to standardized units relative to the mean and standard deviation. The document also discusses how sample means are distributed normally as sample size increases, with a mean equal to the population mean and standard deviation called the standard error that decreases with larger samples. This allows determining if a sample mean is representative of the population.
The document discusses the normal curve and standard scores. It defines the normal curve as a continuous probability distribution that is bell-shaped and symmetric. It was developed by Gauss and Pearson. The normal curve can be divided into areas defined by standard deviations from the mean. Standard scores are raw scores converted to other scales, including z-scores, t-scores, and stanines. Z-scores indicate the distance from the mean in standard deviations. T-scores are on a scale of 50 plus or minus 10. Stanines use a nine-point scale with a mean of 5 and standard deviation of 2.
The document discusses the normal distribution, which produces a symmetrical bell-shaped curve. It has two key parameters - the mean and standard deviation. According to the empirical rule, about 68% of values in a normal distribution fall within one standard deviation of the mean, 95% within two standard deviations, and 99.7% within three standard deviations. The normal distribution is commonly used to model naturally occurring phenomena that tend to cluster around an average value, such as heights or test scores.
This document provides an overview of several nonparametric statistical tests including the chi-square goodness-of-fit test, chi-square test of independence, runs test, Mann-Whitney U test, and their appropriate uses and calculations. It also discusses key differences between parametric and nonparametric statistics, advantages and disadvantages of nonparametric techniques, and considerations for sample size selection for some common nonparametric tests. Examples are provided to demonstrate applications and calculations for the chi-square goodness-of-fit test, chi-square test of independence, and runs test.
The document discusses skewness in statistical distributions. It defines skewness as asymmetry that causes a curve to appear distorted to the left or right. Negative skewed distributions have a longer left tail, with the mean less than the mode, while positive skewed have a longer right tail and mean greater than the mode. A normal distribution is perfectly symmetrical. Skewness can be measured numerically using Pearson's second coefficient, which involves subtracting the mode from the median and dividing by the standard deviation. An example shows test score data that is negatively skewed, with most values below the mode of 70.

It concludes by explaining how to determine if two lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither based on the equality or product of their slopes. Examples are provided to demonstrate these concepts.
Percentiles are positional measures used to indicate an individual's position within a group. They divide a data set into 100 equal parts, with percentiles (denoted Px) indicating what percent of values are less than a specified value. Common percentiles include the median (P50), quartiles (P25, P50, P75), and deciles. Percentiles are calculated using a formula that determines the position number based on the total number of data points and percentile value. This position is then used to find the corresponding value within ordered data.

Standard scores indicate how many standard deviations a particular score is above or below the mean. There are different types of standard scores including z-scores, t-scores, and g-scores. The document provides an example of calculating standard scores for math and English test scores.
Standard scores provide a normalized measurement of a test taker's performance relative to others by expressing their score in terms of the number of standard deviations above or below the mean. There are three main types of standard scores: Z-scores measure the distance from the mean in standard deviation units; T-scores have a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10; and G-scores have a mean of 500 and standard deviation of 100.
Z-scores, also called standard scores, measure how many standard deviations a raw score is above or below the mean of its distribution. A z-score indicates where a particular score lies in relation to all other scores in the distribution. To calculate a z-score, the raw score is subtracted from the mean and divided by the standard deviation of the distribution. Z-scores can be positive, negative, or zero, depending on whether the raw score is above, below, or equal to the mean. Several examples are provided to demonstrate calculating z-scores from raw scores, means, and standard deviations.
The Altman Z-score is a statistical model that uses multiple corporate financial ratios to predict the probability that a company will go bankrupt within 2 years. The Z-score was developed in 1968 by Edward Altman and uses ratios related to profitability, leverage, liquidity, and other factors. A Z-score above 2.99 indicates low risk of bankruptcy, between 1.81-2.99 is in the gray area, and below 1.81 indicates high risk. The model requires data from a company's balance sheet and income statement to calculate ratios and determine the overall Z-score.
This document discusses measuring the financial health of Lotte India Corporation Ltd using the Z-score and Springate models. It provides details on the Z-score model developed by Altman, including the formulas and guidelines for interpretation. Financial ratios used in the Z-score and Springate models are explained. The document also includes information on the confectionery industry and company profile. Objectives, methodology, findings and conclusions of analyzing Lotte's financial health over 5 years are presented.
The document discusses how to calculate variance and standard deviation. It provides the formulas and steps to find variance as the average squared deviation from the mean. Standard deviation is defined as the square root of variance and measures how dispersed data are from the mean, with a larger standard deviation indicating more variation. Examples are worked through to demonstrate calculating variance and standard deviation for different data sets.
The document discusses standardized scores (z-scores) and how they are used to compare individuals' scores on different tests or distributions with different means and standard deviations. It provides examples of calculating z-scores and using them to determine which individual scored higher relative to their own distribution. An assignment section includes multiple problems calculating and interpreting z-scores from information about test scores, package weights, heights, and more.
The document presents a methodology for modeling structural default risk and allocating deposits to money market counterparties. It uses financial ratios like working capital/total assets, retained earnings/total assets, EBIT/total assets, and market value/total liabilities to calculate Z-scores for counterparties based on models by Altman and Merton. Counterparties are categorized as default, troubled credit, or okay based on their Z-scores, and deposit limits are determined accordingly to mitigate counterparty risk. Graphs show how actual and forecasted Z-scores compare over time for sample counterparties.
This document discusses how to solve quadratic equations by completing the square to build the quadratic formula. It explains that completing the square allows finding the x-value at the vertex and the axis of symmetry, which can be represented by the quadratic formula as two fractions - the first being the h-value and the second being the horizontal distance from the axis of symmetry to the x-intercepts. It provides the example of solving x^2 + 3x - 9 = 0 to demonstrate this process.
This document provides instructions for graphing quadratic functions by finding the vertex and axis of symmetry. It gives examples of graphing functions like f(x)=3x^2-6x+1 and finding that the vertex is the maximum or minimum point. It also covers graphing using transformations, with examples of shifting and stretching quadratic functions and finding corresponding vertices and axes of symmetry.
This document provides information on applying the vertex formula to problems involving projectile motion. It discusses key concepts like projectiles, parabolas, maximum and minimum heights. Examples are provided for using the vertex formula (-b/2a) to calculate the time a projectile reaches its highest point and the maximum height achieved for scenarios like firework displays and baseballs thrown vertically.
Credit risk refers to the risk that a borrower will default on any type of debt by failing to make payments which it is obligated to do. The risk is primarily that of the lender and includes lost principal and interest, disruption to cash flows, and increased collection costs. The loss may be complete or partial and can arise in a number of circumstances. For example:
• A consumer may fail to make a payment due on a mortgage loan, credit card, line of credit, or other loan
• A company is unable to repay amounts secured by a fixed or floating charge over the assets of the company
• A business or consumer does not pay a trade invoice when due
• A business does not pay an employee's earned wages when due
• A business or government bond issuer does not make a payment on a coupon or principal payment when due
• An insolvent insurance company does not pay a policy obligation
• An insolvent bank won't return funds to a depositor
• A government grants bankruptcy protection to an insolvent consumer or business.
To reduce the lender's credit risk, the lender may perform a credit check on the prospective borrower, may require the borrower to take out appropriate insurance, such as mortgage insurance or seek security or guarantees of third parties, besides other possible strategies. In general, the higher the risk, the higher will be the interest rate that the debtor will be asked to pay on the debt.

The document also covers how to convert between a normal distribution and the standard normal distribution and how to find probabilities using the standard normal distribution table.
The document discusses key concepts in statistics like histograms, mean, median, standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis. Several histograms of data distributions are presented with calculations of their statistical properties. Key points made are that the mean and standard deviation best summarize normal distributions, while other measures like median and interquartile range are better for skewed distributions.

Converting normal to standard normal distribution and vice versa pptAilz Lositaño
The document discusses converting normal random variables to standard normal variables and vice versa using z-scores. It provides examples of calculating z-scores given population/sample means and standard deviations. The key points are:
- A z-score represents the distance from the mean in terms of standard deviations and is used to convert a raw score to its standard normal equivalent.
- The formula for converting a normal variable to standard is z = (x - μ) / σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.
- Converting from a z-score to a raw score uses the formula x = μ + zσ, allowing you to find the original value
This document discusses the normal distribution and sampling. It begins by explaining that the normal distribution can be used to approximate a continuous random variable to an ideal situation. It describes key aspects of the normal distribution including its bell curve shape, parameters of mean and standard deviation, and the fact that 50% of values are above and below the mean. The document then discusses the standard normal distribution with a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1. It provides examples of calculating probabilities using the normal distribution and standard normal tables. It concludes with examples of solving probability problems involving the normal distribution.
The learning outcomes of this topic are:

This document provides information about the normal distribution and calculating z-scores. It includes examples of calculating z-scores based on given means, standard deviations, and individual scores. It also provides examples calculating the mean and standard deviation from raw data and frequency tables. Worked examples are provided to demonstrate how to calculate z-scores in different contexts like test scores, physical attributes, and manufacturing data.
The document discusses estimation and different types of estimates used to estimate population parameters based on sample data. Point estimates provide a single value while interval estimates provide a range of values. Good estimators are unbiased, efficient, and consistent. Common point estimators are the sample mean and sample standard deviation. Interval estimates use the point estimate plus/minus a margin of error calculated from the standard error. Confidence intervals provide a probability that the population parameter lies within the interval estimate.

Percentage and its applications /COMMERCIAL MATHEMATICSindianeducation
The document discusses percentage and its applications. It begins by providing examples of percentages used in everyday contexts like sales, voter turnout, exam scores, and interest rates. It then defines percentage as a fraction with a denominator of 100 and discusses converting between percentages, fractions, and decimals. The objectives are to illustrate percentage concepts and solve problems involving profit/loss, discounts, simple/compound interest, rates of growth, and more. Background knowledge expected includes the four basic operations on whole numbers, fractions, and decimals. The document then explains calculating a specified percentage of a given number by converting the percentage to a fraction or decimal and multiplying. It provides several examples like finding percentage of marks scored, expenditures, increases/reductions.
The document discusses analyzing single samples and making inferences about population parameters. It addresses three key questions for single samples: what is the mean, is the mean significantly different from expectations, and how certain we are of the mean estimate. Parametric or non-parametric methods must be used depending on whether the data meets assumptions like normality. The normal distribution and central limit theorem allow drawing inferences from sample means. Examples demonstrate calculating probabilities for different parts of the normal distribution using z-scores and the standard normal distribution.

This time, we're diving into the murky waters of the Fuxnet malware, a brainchild of the illustrious Blackjack hacking group.
Let's set the scene: Moscow, a city unsuspectingly going about its business, unaware that it's about to be the star of Blackjack's latest production. The method? Oh, nothing too fancy, just the classic "let's potentially disable sensor-gateways" move.
In a move of unparalleled transparency, Blackjack decides to broadcast their cyber conquests on ruexfil.com. Because nothing screams "covert operation" like a public display of your hacking prowess, complete with screenshots for the visually inclined.
Ah, but here's where the plot thickens: the initial claim of 2,659 sensor-gateways laid to waste? A slight exaggeration, it seems. The actual tally? A little over 500. It's akin to declaring world domination and then barely managing to annex your backyard.
For Blackjack, ever the dramatists, hint at a sequel, suggesting the JSON files were merely a teaser of the chaos yet to come. Because what's a cyberattack without a hint of sequel bait, teasing audiences with the promise of more digital destruction?
-------
