When n is small (less than 30), how does the shape of the t distribution compare to the normal distribution then"it is flatter and wider than the normal distribution."
<h3>What is normal distribution?</h3>
The normal distribution explains a symmetrical plot of data around the mean value, with the standard deviation defining the width of the curve. It is represented graphically as "bell curve."
Some key features regarding the normal distribution are-
- The normal distribution is officially known as the Gaussian distribution, but the term "normal" was coined after scientific publications in the nineteenth century demonstrated that many natural events emerged to "deviate normally" from the mean.
- The naturalist Sir Francis Galton popularized the concept of "normal variability" as the "normal curve" in his 1889 work, Natural Inheritance.
- Even though the normal distribution is a crucial statistical concept, the applications in finance are limited because financial phenomena, such as expected stock-market returns, do not fit neatly within a normal distribution.
- In fact, prices generally follow a right-skewed log-normal distribution with fatter tails.
As a result, relying as well heavily on the a bell curve when forecasting these events can yield unreliable results.

Yes I’m sorry but I’m sorry I’m texting back to my sister in
You need to do 10 divided by 4. Each friend would get 2.5 pounds of a nut.
x + y = 3.36 --> the boys are splitting $3.36
x = 3y - .12 --> one boy received $.12 less than 3 times as much as the other
--> substitute the second equation for the x in the first equation
(3y - .12) + y = 3.36 --> combine like terms
4y - .12 = 3.36 --> add .12 to both sides of the equation
4y = 3.48 --> divide both sides by 4
y = .87
the other boy gets $0.87
substitute into x = 3y - 12
x = 3(.87) - .12
x = 2.61 - .12
x = 2.49
the first boy gets $2.49
