TOPIC 01

Normal distribution

Standardise a normal variable and interpret supplied table probabilities and symmetry.

Standardise a normal variable and interpret supplied table probabilities and symmetry.
Justify the method and check the conditions in a new situation.

Use one hint at a time. A correction explains what changed, not just the final answer.

t=13

σ>0; probability table values are supplied in each task. A continuous variable has zero probability at a single point.

Skills and prerequisite lessons

Working and explanation

BUILD THE REASONING

Hint 1

Express the event with a conditional probability or a disjoint partition.

Hint 2

A continuous distribution assigns zero mass to a point.

Worked solution

The requested value is 0.

Checks and common pitfalls: The density is largest at the mean, but point probability is still zero.

Think first. Reveal a hint when the class is ready.
