Its graph is bell-shaped. In this chapter, you will study the normal distribution, the standard normal distribution, and applications associated with them. The normal distribution has two parameters (two numerical descriptive measures), the mean (μ) and the standard deviation (σ).

About 95% of the \(x\) values lie between \(–2\sigma\) and \(+2\sigma\) of the mean \(\mu\) (within two standard deviations of the mean).

The mean of the z-scores is zero and the standard deviation is one. If y is the z-score for a value x from the normal distribution N(μ,σ) then z tells you how many standard deviations x is above (greater than) or below (less than) μ.

We will end by examining how certain regions within our distributions can directly relate to other regions within our distributions using some basic geometric reasoning.

It explains the concept of the z-score, measuring distance from the mean in standard deviations. Additionally, it highlights the normal distribution's importance in probability theory, characterized by its continuous, bell-shaped form with parameters mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ), particularly focusing on the relevance of z-scores across various fields.
