Computers are commonly used to randomly generate digits of telephone numbers to be called when conducting a survey. Can a nonstandard normal distribution be used to find the probability that when one digit is randomly generated, it is less than 3? Why or why not? What is the probability of getting a digit less than 3? A nonstandard normal distribution V be used because randomly generated digits have a V meaning that to be chosen. The probability of getting a digit less than 3 is O. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) nonstandard normal distribution uniform distribution standard normal distribution

Continuous Probability Distributions

Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could count from 0 to a trillion seconds, billion seconds, so on indefinitely. A discrete probability distribution consists of only a countable set of possible values.

Normal Distribution

Suppose we had to design a bathroom weighing scale, how would we decide what should be the range of the weighing machine? Would we take the highest recorded human weight in history and use that as the upper limit for our weighing scale? This may not be a great idea as the sensitivity of the scale would get reduced if the range is too large. At the same time, if we keep the upper limit too low, it may not be usable for a large percentage of the population!
