1 The Normal Distribution
Chapter 10

2 Continuous Random Variable
A variable which can take any real value within a specific range Denoted by a capital letter such as X The probability of a continuous random variable being exactly equal to a particular value is 0.

3 Normal Distribution Demo

4 The Normal Distribution Curve

5 * If a continuous variable X is normally distributed with mean µ and standard deviation σ, we write 𝑋~𝑁 𝜇, 𝜎 2 .

6 Pg. 303 Example 1

7 Using the TI-84 to find Normal Probability

8 Pg. 305 Example 2

9 Pg. 306 Example 3

10 Quantiles/k-Values Quantiles are points in a distribution that relate to the rank order of values in that distribution. Denoted by k Types of problems: given a probability, calculate a corresponding measurement Use the inverse normal function on the calculator.
