Question
Answer
show Uniform probability distribution and normal probability distribution.  
🗑
show The simplest distribution for a continuous random variable. This distribution is rectangular in shape and is defined by minimum and maximum values.  
🗑
show (a + b)/2  
🗑
show The square root of [(b-a)^2]/12  
🗑
Uniform Distribution P(X) =   show
🗑
Area =   show
🗑
show It is bell-shaped and had a single peak at the center of the distribution. It is symmetrical about the mean. It falls off smoothly in either direction for the central values - it is asymptotic. Location of a normal distribution is determined by the mean.  
🗑
Bell-Shaped   show
🗑
show If the normal curve is cut vertically at the center value, the two halves will be mirror images.  
🗑
show The curve gets closer and closer to the X-axis but never actually touches it. The tails of the curve extend indefinitely in both directions.  
🗑
The dispersion or spread of the distribution is determined by:   show
🗑
show One member of the family of normal distributions that can be used to determine the probabilities for all normal distributions. It is unique because it has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.  
🗑
show The signed distance between a selected value, designated X, and the mean (mu), divided by the standard deviation (sigma).  
🗑
Empirical Rule   show
🗑
