Kaitlyn and Allison took a standardized algebra test in different states. Kaitlyn takes the test for Virginia and
scores a 458. Allison takes the test for North Carolina and scores a 185. Suppose the mean and standard
deviation for the algebra scores for Virginia are 405 and 30, respectively, and the mean and standard deviation
for the algebra scores for North Carolina are 152 and 20, respectively. Which student did better on her algebra
test?

Kaitlyn did better since her z-score is higher than Allison’s z-score.
Allison did better since her z-score is higher than Kaitlyn’s z-score.
Allison did better since her z-score is closer to the mean than Kaitlyn’s z-score.
