Essay

Assume you are sampling one score from a rectangular distribution of population scores having a mean = 40 and a standard deviation = 15. You want to determine the probability of getting a score ?5= 48. You compute the z transformation of 48 and look up the area corresponding to the z score in Table A (column C) of your textbook. You conclude that this area gives the desired probability. Is this conclusion correct? Discuss.
