What is an important difference between the uniform and normal probability distributions?

The uniform distribution is limited to a finite domain, the normal is not.


What is the important similarity between the uniform and normal probability distribution?

They are both continuous, symmetric distribution functions.


What does probalility distribution mean?

In parametric statistical analysis we always have some probability distributions such as Normal, Binomial, Poisson uniform etc.In statistics we always work with data. So Probability distribution means "from which distribution the data are?


What are some examples of distribution function?

I will assume that you are asking about probability distribution functions. There are two types: discrete and continuous. Some might argue that a third type exists, which is a mix of discrete and continuous distributions. When representing discrete random variables, the probability distribution is probability mass function or "pmf." For continuous distributions, the theoretical distribution is the probability density function or "pdf." Some textbooks will call pmf's as discrete probability distributions. Common pmf's are binomial, multinomial, uniform discrete and Poisson. Common pdf's are the uniform, normal, log-normal, and exponential. Two common pdf's used in sample size, hypothesis testing and confidence intervals are the "t distribution" and the chi-square. Finally, the F distribution is used in more advanced hypothesis testing and regression.

What is the probability of a class running between 51.25 and 51.5 minutes if the uniform distribution is between 50 and 52?

The probability is (51.5-51.25)/(52-50) = 0.25/2 = 0.125


Is the uniform probability distribution is symmetric about the mode?

Yes, the uniform probability distribution is symmetric about the mode. Draw the sketch of the uniform probability distribution. If we say that the distribution is uniform, then we obtain the same constant for the continuous variable. * * * * * The uniform probability distribution is one in which the probability is the same throughout its domain, as stated above. By definition, then, there can be no value (or sub-domain) for which the probability is greater than elsewhere. In other words, a uniform probability distribution has no mode. The mode does not exist. The distribution cannot, therefore, be symmetric about something that does not exist.


What is the probability that a bridge hand of thirteen out of fifty-two cards contains exactly one ace with the condition ace with non uniform distribution?

It is approx 0.4388 However, I am not at all sure what you mean by "the condition ace with non uniform distribution". None of the relevant distributions are uniform so the condition seems to be totally irrelevant!


Is uniform distribution normal distribution?

No, they are two very different distributions.


Does this means that all symmetric distribution are normal Explain?

Don't know what "this" is, but all symmetric distributions are not normal. There are many distributions, discrete and continuous that are not normal. The uniform or binomial distributions are examples of discrete symmetric distibutions that are not normal. The uniform and the beta distribution with equal parameters are examples of a continuous distribution that is not normal. The uniform distribution can be discrete or continuous.


What does uniform probability mean in math?

Uniform probability can refer to a discrete probability distribution for which each outcome has the same probability. For a continuous distribution, it requires that the probability of the outcome is directly proportional to the range of values in the desired outcome (compared to the total range).
