A teacher calculates for the test grades in Class A, mean = 32 and sd = 4
Class B, mean = 32 and sd = 8
a. If the teacher was going to guess what any student in his/her class would earn, what is the best score
to guess?
b. Which of the classes has more consistency in their scores? Why?

a. best score to guess would be 33

b. Standard deviation simplifies the square root of the mean so makes it closer to 1 has more consistency as the mean of 32 when squared is sqrt 32  is Class A as class a = 4 and is closer to 5.65685425

as 5.65685425^2 = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are comparing two normally-distributed variables on the same measurement scale then yes, you can regard the standard deviation as an indicator of how reliable the mean is--the smaller the standard deviation, the better able you are to "zero in" on the actual population mean.

a. proofs;

We find  32/6 = 5.333 and 32/5 = 6.4 and 6.4 is closer to both sd 4 and 8 than 5.33 is. As 6.4 it is closer to 6

But when we use 33/6 = 5.5 and therefore shows close range 6

therefore the two sd  proves it is slightly high 32 score average for both classes A + B when joined and high 32 = 33 mean when classes A+B are joined or you could say 32/8 = 4 is class B becomes lower tests scores as 32/4 = 8 of class A that has higher test scores.

you're missing vital information, add to it so we can solve this problem for you.

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 844

step-by-step explanation:

it is 844 because if you add 836.50 + 7.5 you will get 844
