The z-test compares a sample mean to a population mean when the population SD is known.

The math behind it

z = (sample mean − population mean) ÷ (population SD ÷ √n).

Worked Example

x̄ 105, μ 100, σ 15, n 36 → z 2.0.

Frequently Asked Questions

z vs t?

Use z when the population SD is known and n is large; otherwise use t.
