A graph titled "Standardized Test Composite Scores" has a horizontal x-axis labeled "Score" from about 1 to 39 with tick marks at 6, 26, and 32. A normal curve labeled μ = 19.9 σ = 5.4 is centered above the x-axis at 19.9. Two vertical line segments extend from the curve to the x-axis at 26 and 32. The area below the curve and between the two vertical line segments is shaded and labeled 26 < x < 32.

The probability that the member selected at random is from the shaded area of the graph is

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.
