Answer:
The standardized value is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]mu = 20[/tex] -- mean
[tex]\sigma = 2[/tex] --- standard deviation
Required
Determine the standardized value of X = 16
The standardized value (S) is calculated using:
[tex]S = \frac{X - mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]S = \frac{16 - 20}{2}[/tex]
[tex]S = \frac{- 4}{2}[/tex]
[tex]S = -2[/tex]
The standardized value is -2
