They are easily derived based on the notion of a Schur complement of a matrix. We apply this lemma with the correspondence: x!z 2, !z 1 x= + ˙" "˘N(0;1) = 0 + ˙ 0 ˘N(0;1) E(x) = 0 (5)

people.umass.edu1. Majority of Z scores in a right skewed distribution are negative. 2. In skewed distributions the Z score of the mean might be different than 0. 3. For a normal distribution, IQR is less than 2 x SD. 4. Z scores are helpful for determining how unusual a data point is compared to the rest of the data in the distribution. Practice
