Question

The scores on a college entrance exam have an approximate normal distribution with mean,
? = 52 points and a standard deviation, ? = 11 points.

d. What percent of the college entrance exams had a score bellow 30?

e. What percent of college entrance exams had a score between 63 and 74?

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
