Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

SAT:

(450 - 500) / 100 = -0.5 zscore = .3085, or 31% did less well

ACT:

(17 - 18) / 6 = -0.17 zscore = .4325, or 43% did less well

The ACT score is better because it is less negative. The less negative a zscore is, the higher the percentage of people
