Shawna, Dexter, and Tilana are solving the equation Negative 2.5 (5 minus n) + 2 = 15. Shawna says, “I can begin by dividing each side of the equation by –2.5 to get 5 minus n minus StartFraction 2 over 2.5 EndFraction = Negative StartFraction 15 over 2.5 EndFraction.”
Dexter says, “I can begin by distributing Negative 2.5 to get Negative 12.5 + 2.5 n + 2 = 15.”
Tilana says, “I can begin by multiplying each side of the equation by Negative StartFraction 1 over 2.5 EndFraction to get 5 minus n minus 0.8 = negative 6.”

If your score on your next statistics test is converted to a z score, which of these z scores would you prefer: minus2.00, minus1.00, 0, 1.00, 2.00? why? a. the z score of 2.00 is most preferable because it is 2.00 standard deviations above the mean and would correspond to the highest of the five different possible test scores. b. the z score of 0 is most preferable because it corresponds to a test score equal to the mean. c. the z score of minus2.00 is most preferable because it is 2.00 standard deviations below the mean and would correspond to the highest of the five different possible test scores. d. the z score of minus1.00 is most preferable because it is 1.00 standard deviation below the mean and would correspond to an above average
