Objectives
Objectives
I: Use the standard Normal
distribution to calculate the
proportions of values in a
specified range and to
determine a z-score from a
percentile.
J: Given that a variable has
the Normal distribution
with mean,  , and
standard deviation,  ,
use Table A and your
calculator to determine the
proportion of values in a
specified range.
K: Given that a variable has
the Normal distribution
with mean,  , and
standard deviation,  ,
calculate the point having
a stated proportion of all
values to left or right of it.
J: Given that a variable has
the Normal distribution
with mean,  , and
standard deviation,  ,
use Table A and your
calculator to determine the
proportion of values in a
specified range.
K: Given that a variable has
the Normal distribution
with mean,  , and
standard deviation,  ,
calculate the point having
a stated proportion of all
values to left or right of it.
L: Plot a histogram, stemplot,
or boxplot to determine if
distribution is bell-shaped.
M: Determine the proportion
of observations within one,
two, and three standard
deviations of the mean,
and compare with the
68-95-99.7 rule for Normal
distributions.
N: Construct and interpret
Normal probability plots.
