p = .19
\n" ); document.write( "q = 1 - 0 = .81
\n" ); document.write( "n = 330 = sample size\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "m = n * p = .19 * 330 = 62.7 = mean of the binomial distribution.
\n" ); document.write( "s = square root (n * p * q) = sqrt(330 * .19 * .81) = 7.12649999842 = standard deviation of the binomial distribution.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "range rule of thumbs says:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "68% of the scores are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
\n" ); document.write( "95% of the scores are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
\n" ); document.write( "99.7% of the scores are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you are looking at 95% of the scores being within 2 standard deviations of the mean.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the critical z-score for 95% of the scores being within 2 standard deviations of the mean would be plus of minus 1.96.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "use the z-score formula to find the raw score.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "z-score formula is:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "z = (x - m) / s\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "z is the z-score
\n" ); document.write( "x is the raw score
\n" ); document.write( "m is the mean
\n" ); document.write( "s is the standard deviation\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you get:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-1.96 = (x - 62.7) / 7.1265 for the low side.
\n" ); document.write( "1.96 = (x - 62.7) / 7.1265 for the high side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "solve for x in each to get:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = -1.96 * 7.1265 + 62.7 = 48.73206 for the low side.
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1.96 * 7.1265 + 62.7 = 76.66794 for the high side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the scores with 95% of the normal distribution between them would be 48.73206 to 76.66794.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if you round to the nearest integer, you get 49 to 77.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "in interval notation that would be [49,77].\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "i don't know what is meant by usual values.
