Respuesta :

Answer:

Pat's score therfore was the 20th percentiles

Step-by-step explanation:

When a value V is said to be in the xth percentile of a set, x% of the values in the set are lower than V and (100-x)% of the values in the set are higher than V.

In this problem, we have that:

34 scores lower than Pat's.

[tex]\frac{34}{170} = 0.20[/tex]

So Patrick's score was the 20th percentile.
