What is a factorial (n!)?

100

What is the measure of center is found by adding all data values and dividing by the number of values.


The Mean

100

The heights of students in a class are normally distributed with a mean of 65 inches. This means the average student's height is this value.

65 inches

6

200

This expression gives the number of ways to arrange 4 objects selected from 10 distinct objects when order matters.

What is 10p4?

200

What is the measure of center is the middle value of a data set when the values are arranged in order.

Median

200

The test scores in a class have a mean of 80 points and a standard deviation of 5 points. This means a typical score is about this many points away from the mean.

5 points

The mean efficiency of the average car is 25.9 mpg with a standard deviation of 3.4 if you drive at 43.2 miles per hour what is the Z score 

0.37

300

IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Approximately 95% of scores fall between these values.

70 and 130

400

The value of 6! is this number.

What is 720?

400

What is the measure describes how spread out data values are from the mean and is calculated by taking the square root of the variance.

Standard deviation 

400

A distribution has a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. A value of 130 has this z-score.
