Question Answer
what is important to know about the x values for continuous random data? they can be infinity with no definite end being defined as P( -infinity, infinity)
how is continuous random data represented? a probability density curve which is a smooth curve over the relative frequency.
how the events represented? as the intervals on the x axis
what are the events? the area under the curve, over the intervals
the x values for a density curve must always be ___? greater then or equal to zero
what is another name for a bell curve? a normal curve
u is the? sigma is the ? u is the mean, sigma is the spread of the graph
68% of the graph? falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean
95% of the data? falls withing two standard deviations of the mean?
99.7% of the data? falls within three standard deviations of the mean
how do you define the probability of one standard deviation? 2? - P(u-sigma < or equal to X < or equal to u+sigma) = 0.68 - P(u-2sigma < or equal to X < or equal to u+2sigma) = 0.95
