Answer:
Its associated z-score is -1.16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-score:
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In the most recent sample, the found an average fill of 12.01 oz with a standard deviation of 0.89.
This means that [tex]\mu = 12.01, \sigma = 0.89[/tex].
If one of the bottles of sampled beer was filled to 10.98 oz, what is its associated zscore
This is Z when X = 10.98. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{10.98 - 12.01}{0.89}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.16[/tex]
Its associated z-score is -1.16.
