how far did you get?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

do you remember the curve I drew for the previous problem?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that's the normal distribution or bell shaped curve

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what's the mean in this case?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is 1 standard deviation above the mean?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you add that to 64 to get 67.5

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so 67.5 is one std dev above the mean

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is one std dev below the mean

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that would be 2 std dev above the mean

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

because you added 2*3.5 to 64 to get 71

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that's 1 std dev below the mean

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

how about 2 std dev below the mean?
