What is the relationship between the Z-score of a data point and its distance from the mean?
- The Z-score is independent of the distance from the mean
- The higher the Z-score, the closer the data point is to the mean
- The higher the Z-score, the further the data point is from the mean
- The lower the Z-score, the further the data point is from the mean
The higher the Z-score, the further the data point is from the mean. A Z-score of 0 indicates that the data point is identical to the mean score.
