3.1 Finding areas under the standard normal curve. The standard normal distribution has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation and variance of 1. So if Z is a standard normal variable, μZ = 0, σZ = 1, σ2. Z = 1. The notation for this is Z N(0, 1). Again, we distinguish between the variable, Z (capital Z), and its. ∼.

A Normal distribution is described by a Normal density curve. Any particular Normal distribution is completely specified by two numbers: its mean 𝜇 and its standard deviation 𝜎. The mean of a Normal distribution is the center of the symmetric Normal curve. The standard deviation is the distance from the center to the change-

Since we are given that the distribution of heights in 12 year old boys is normal, we know that 2 SDs above or below the sample mean will give us an interval containing approximately 95% of the heights in the sample. This interval would run from 64 – 2*5 to 64 + 2*5, or 54 inches to 74 inches. Within Z SDs of the mean More than Z SDs above ...
