Good

Morning!!!
Learning Competencies:
➢Identifies regions under the normal curve
corresponding to different standard normal values.
➢Converts a normal random variable to a standard
normal variable and vice versa.
➢Computes probabilities and percentiles using the
standard normal table.
Objectives:
➢Illustrates a normal random variable and its
properties
➢Identifies regions under the normal curve
corresponding to different standard normal
values
➢Construct a normal curve
Normal
Distributions
Normal Distributions
➢Also called as Gaussian Distribution.
➢It is defined as a continuous frequency
distribution of infinite range.
Normal Curve
➢A bell-shaped curve and graph of normal
distribution.
➢It lies entirely above the horizontal axis.
➢It is symmetrical, unimodal, and asymptotic
to the horizontal axis.
Bell-Shaped
Normal Curve
➢ The change value of mean shifts the graph of
the normal curve to the right or the left.
➢ The standard deviation determines the shape
of the graphs (particularly the height and the
width of the curve). When the SD is LARGE,
the normal curve is SHORT AND WIDE,
while if the SD has SMALL VALUE, it is
SKINNIER and TALLER.
There are many normal distributions. A
normal distribution is determined by two
parameters: the mean µ and the standard
deviation σ. If the mean µ is 0 and the
standard deviation σ is 1, then the normal
distribution is a standard normal distribution.
Empirical Rule
➢ The empirical rule is
also referred to as the
68-95-99.7% rule.
Example:
➢The scores of the Senior High School students in their
Statistics and Probability quarterly examination are
normally distributed with a mean of 35 and a standard
deviation of 5.

➢ What percent of the scores are between 30 to 40?


➢ What scores fall within 95% of the distribution?
What percent of the scores are between
30 to 40?
What percent of the scores are between
30 to 40?
The scores that fall between 30 to 40 is
approximately 68% of the distribution.
What scores fall within 95% of the
distribution?
What scores fall within 95% of the
distribution?
The scores corresponding to 95% of the
distribution are scores from 25 up to 45.
