The annual snowfall in a town has a mean of 38 inches and a standard deviation of 10 inches. Last year there were 63 inches of snow. Find the number of standard deviations from the mean that is, rounded to two decimal places

Respuesta :

This is 2.5 standard deviations from the mean.

We find this by subtracting the mean from our value, and dividing by the standard deviation:
(63-38)/10 = 25/10 = 2.5
