Here are the answers to the quiz questions: I. 1. Area = 0.4165 - 0.0253 = 0.3912 2. Area = 0.9646 3. Area = 0.3275 II. [Sketches the two normal curves described] The first curve is centered at 15 with width determined by σ of 4. The second curve is centered at 25 with the same width determined by σ of 4. III. One real-life situation where a normal distribution can be used is to model human height in a population. Since most people's heights cluster around an average with decreasing frequencies further from the average in both directions, height follows an approximate

14. Properties of Normal
Curve.
1.The distribution curve is bell
shaped.
2.The curve is symmetrical to
its center, the mean.
3.The mean, median and
mode coincide at the center.

15. Properties of Normal
Curve.
3. The width of the curve is determined
by the standard deviation of the
distribution.
4. The curve is asymptotic to the
horizontal axis.
5. The area under the curve is 1, thus
it represents the probability or
proportion, or percentage associated
with specific sets of measurements
values.

16. Normal distribution is determined by two
parameters: the mean and the standard
deviation.
1. Mean Value
2. Standard Deviation Value

Empirical Rule referred to as the 68-
95-99.7% Rule. It tells that for a
normally distributed variable the
following are true.
Distribution Area Under The Normal Curve

 Approximately 68% of the data lie within 1 standard
deviation of the mean. Pr (μ-𝜎<X> μ-𝜎), this is the
formula for getting range and interval of the normal
distribution.

19. z
Approximately 95% of the data lie within 2 standard
deviations of mean. Pr (μ-2𝜎 <X> μ-2𝜎 ), this is the
formula for getting range and interval of the normal
distribution.

20. z
 Approximately 99.7% of the lie within 3 standard
deviations of the mean. Pr (μ-2𝜎<X> μ-2𝜎), this is the
formula for getting range and interval of the normal
distribution.

a. What is the
frequency or percentage
of one standard
deviation from mean.
Solution:
Step 1. Draw a normal
Curve.
Step 2. In the middle of
the curve, plot
the value of the
mean which is 6.11.

Step 3. The value of
our standard deviation

When you are going to
the right starting in
the middle, mean plus
the standard deviation
meanwhile when you
are going to the left of
the curve standard
deviation is subtracted
from the mean.

26. z Step 4. Since the question is
frequency of one standard deviation
from the mean, we are in the empirical
rule 68% which ranges to 4.48 to
7.74, now we are going to count.
