The Normal Distribution

Properties and StandardisationSign up

understand the properties of the normal distribution N(μ, σ^2), including symmetry about μ and the inflection points at μ ± σ · be able to use standardisation Z = (X - μ) / σ and tables (or a calculator) of the standard normal distribution to find probabilities and inverse values · be able to solve problems where μ and/or σ are unknown by setting up and solving simultaneous equations from given probabilities
