Math 100 Quiz Measures of Relative Position

This document contains a quiz with problems measuring concepts of relative position including percentiles, quartiles, interquartile range, outliers, z-scores, and standard deviations. The first problem involves finding percentiles, quartiles, and outliers for a data set of test scores. The second converts given scores to z-scores using a normal distribution with mean 40 and standard deviation 10. The third finds the z-score for a dinosaur bone measurement using the distribution's mean of 5 feet and standard deviation of 3 inches.
