In order to be considered a normal distribution, a data set (when graphed) must follow a bell-shaped symmetrical curve centered around the mean.
It must also adhere to the empirical rule that indicates the percentage of the data set that falls within (plus or minus) 1, 2 and 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In order to be a normal distribution, what percentage of the data set must fall within:
Find the area under the standard normal curve between Z=1.5 and Z=2.4.
Alex took a test in physics and scored a 35. The class average was 27 and the standard deviation was 5.
Noah took a chemistry test and scored an 82. The class average was 70 and the standard deviation was 8.
Show that Alex had the better performance by calculating -
Alex's standard normal percentile and
Noah's standard normal percentile
