Compare the scores.
choices
a )None of the above
b )The two scores are statistically the same.
c )A score of 52 with a mean of 66 and a standard deviation of 8 is better.
d) A score of 20 with a mean of 27 and a standard deviation of 5 is better.
e) You cannot determine which score is better from the given information.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 66 and the standard deviation was 8, scored an 52, 
z = -14/8, P( z < -1.75) = normalcdf(-100,-1.75) = .04
.........
mean was 27 and the standard deviation was 5, scored a 20,
z = -7/5, P(z < -1.4) = norma;cdf(-100, -1.4) = .08
