Every normally distributed variable has specific features and characteristics that enable a person to draw the curve just from knowing the mean and standard deviation. What are those features? Name and describe four features of a normal curve, including what the "68-95-99.7 Rule" can tell you about the dispersion of the data
the four features of a normal curve are:-
1. all normal distribution curve are symmetric about the mean ().the height of any normal curve is maximum at . for normal distribution, mean =median=mode.
2. normal curves are symmetric.All normal curves are bell-shaped. The shape of normal curve depends on its mean and standard deviation σ.
3.The total area under the curve is equal to 1 .
4.to approximate the area that falls within a specific sd from the mean we use the empirical rule, that is:-
approximately 68 % of data lies within ()
approximately 95 % of data lies within ()
approximately 99.7 % of data lies within ()
where, is the standard deviation.
