The geography test has a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 5. The mathematics test has a mean of 300 and a standard deviation of 24. If the data for both tests are normally distributed, on which test did the student score better relative to the other students in each class? OA. The student scored better on the mathematics test. OB. The student scored better on the geography test. OC. The student scored the same on both tests.arrow_forwardSolve the following problem without using excelThat is, solve step by stepCalculate the mean median mode and standard deviation of the data 21,30, 27, 30, 25arrow_forward
