(THIS IS NOT A TEST OR AN ASSESSMENT QUESTION) Hugo averages 32 home runs per season with a standard deviation of 2.5. Jacob averages 27 home runs per season with a standard deviation of 1.6. Last season Hugo hit 36 home runs and Jacob hit 31 home runs. Who had more home runs relative to their usual seasonal average? Explain.

Jacob had more home runs relative to his usual season average than Hugo did.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key solving this is to express their respective home runs in z-value forms.

Z = (x - ų)/óx

X = Current home runs

Ų = Mean

= Meanóx = Standard deviation

For Hugo,

X = Current home run = 31

Ų = Mean = 27

Óx = Stardard deviation = 1.6

Z = (x - ų)/óx

Z = (31 - 27)/1.6 = 2.5

Hope this helped!!!
