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 co…
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…
Question

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

▼
 
can
cannot

be used because randomly generated digits have a

▼
 
nonstandard normal distribution
uniform distribution
standard normal distribution

meaning that

▼
 
each number is equally likely
larger and smaller numbers are less likely
larger and smaller numbers are more likely

to be chosen. The probability of getting a digit less than

3

is

nothing.
