normal distribution Standard normal distribution can be used to solve problems related to probabilities of events occurring The area under the curve of the standard normal

Normal distribution, the most common distribution function for independent, randomly generated variables Its familiar bell-shaped curve is new normal The Probability Density Function for a Normal X ∼ N is: f X = 1 σ 2 π e − 2 2 σ 2 Notice the x in the exponent of the PDF
