wanna go on that other site? this one is literally lagging too much for me to help

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

sure.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well its a normal curve... what you should know is that 68% of all data falls within 1 standard deviation above and below the mean... you also need to know 95% of all data is within 2 standard deviations of the mean... and 99.7% of all data is within 3 standard deviations of the mean. so they are basic facts you need to know so what else do you need..?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

can you further explain. i am quite new to this. new words.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

ok... so you know the mean is 1500 and standard deviation of 150 so between 1350 and 1650 you have 68% of the data between 1200 and 1800 you have 95% of the data and 1050 and 1950 you have 99.7% of all data these percentages are set in stone for a normal distribution....

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

can you explain what a stardard dev. is

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

standard deviation is a statistic measure of spread.... so it measure the distance of a piece of data from the mean. here is a link to some cliff notes ... look for statistical measures for a more formal definition of standard deviation. It also has notes about the standard normal curve

I was reading something the other day about luck . Apparently its is normally distributed about a large population. So you have lucky and unlucky people. I know which I am!
