Assuming that the scores of the student in a test are normally distributed with the mean of 40 and standard deviation of 6.

a) What percent scores lie between 42 and 48?

b) What is the probability that the scores picked at random will be above 36?

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.
