The mean finish time for a yearly amateur auto race was 185.19185.19 minutes with a standard deviation of 0.3410.341 minute. the winning car, driven by rogerroger, finished in 184.14184.14 minutes. the previous year's race had a mean finishing time of 110.4110.4 with a standard deviation of 0.1370.137 minute. the winning car that year, driven by sallysally, finished in 110.05110.05 minutes. find their respective z-scores. who had the more convincing victory? rogerroger had a finish time with a z-score of nothing. sallysally had a finish time with a z-score of nothing. (round to two decimal places as needed.)

Let X the random variable that represent the mean finish time for a yearly amateur auto race a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Where and

The z score is given by this formula:

And for a time of 184.14 we have the following z score:

Let Y the random variable that represent the mean finish time for the previous year auto race a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Where and

The z score is given by this formula:

And for a time of 110.05 we have the following z score:

As we can see we have a higher z score for the case of the previous year so then we have a more convincing victory on this case since represent a higher quantile in the normal standard distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the mean finish time for a yearly amateur auto race a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Where and

The z score is given by this formula:

And for a time of 184.14 we have the following z score:

Let Y the random variable that represent the mean finish time for the previous year auto race a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Where and

The z score is given by this formula:

And for a time of 110.05 we have the following z score:

As we can see we have a higher z score for the case of the previous year so then we have a more convincing victory on this case since represent a higher quantile in the normal standard distribution.
