Question 3 (1 point)

Last week, Sarah had exams in math and in Spanish. On the math exam, the mean was μ = 30 with σ = 5, and Sarah had a score of X = 45. On the Spanish exam, the mean was μ = 60 with σ = 8, and Sarah had a score of X = 68. For which class should Sara expect the better grade?

Question 3 options:

	Math
	Spanish
	The grades should be the same because the two exam scores are in the same location.
	There is not enough information to determine which is the better grade.
