It is possible to calculate mathematically the area under the normal curve between any two values of z.
However, tables/software have been developed to give the areas under the normal curve to the left of particular values of z. The function is the probability of Z<z, or P(Z<z).
The area between two values z1 and z2 (where z2>z1) is therefore
P(Z<z2)-P(Z<z1).
For example, to find the area between z1=1.5, z2=2.5
is
P(Z<2.5)-P(Z<1.5)
=0.99379-0.93319
=0.06060
(above values obtained by software, such as R)
For example, the value P(Z<2.5) can be calculated using
P(Z<2.5)=erf(2.5/sqrt(2))/2+1/2
where erf(x) is a mathematical function that does not have an explicit formula (calculated by summation of series, or tabulated).
I believe the formula to find the height would be h= 2a/b and if you use that formula and plug in the area (21.7) of each triangle as well as the base (6) then you would get a height of 7.2 cm. I hope this is correct! :)
150.
You can read the uppermost point on the graph which is pretty much that point.
Answer:
False (I assume it's a true/false question)
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard deviation measures how spread out the data is. If you add 8 to all the data values, the distribution of data moves to the right (on a graph) 8 units. The shifted data are no more and no less spread out than before. The standard deviation does not change.
