The standard deviation is 7.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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 this problem, we have that:
8 percent of the scores are above 89
This means that X = 89 has a pvalue of 1 - 0.08 = 0.92. So when Z = 89, Z = 1.405.
The standard deviation is 7.7
