Answer 5

Lee missed the lesson on normal distribution and needs to do his homework. Explain to Lee how to use the mean and standard deviation of a normal distribution to determine the top 6% of the population.

what do you suppose "top 6% of the population" means?

Note that if we have the mean and standard deviation of this distribution, we're able to calculate the "normalized or z-score" corresponding to either "the bottom 94%" or the "top 6%) of the population. Does this make any sense to you?
