Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following parameters

standard deviation σ = 2.5

z-score Z = 2.4

observed value x = 16

Mean of the dataset μ = ?

Using the formula for calculating the z-score as shown to calculate the mean

[tex]Z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

On substituting the values;

[tex]2.4 = \frac{16-\mu}{2.5} \\2.4 * 2.5 = 16-\mu\\6 = 16-\mu\\\mu = 16-6\\\mu = 10[/tex]

The mean of the dataset is 10
