2.4 H.W. Answers #53 and 54 #53 a. The median, where 50% of the data lies, is below $0.25. b. Q1 (The 25% mark) is around $0.10. Q3 (The 75% mark) is around $0.70. c. The data is definitely skewed to the right. The majority of the students have less than a quarter and then the percentiles go up very slowly until it finally reaches $2.75. d. Since the data is skewed it can not be a normal distribution.
Recentered or Rescaled Data? • Converting data from lbs. to kgs.. • Converting data from U.S. dollars to Mexican pesos. (Suppose $1 = 9.4 Mexican pesos) 3. Adding a constant c to each value of the data: x1, x2, x3, x4, and x5.

2.5 Normal Distribution Where do you see it? Standardized test results, probability, certain data collection from a large population.
Practice Reading the Bell Curve 1) What % of the data is below +1 ? 2) What % of the data is located between the -2 and -1 ?
Solving Problems with Normal DistributionFor Normal Distribution Problem, always draw the bell curve and label the values of mean and standard deviations.
