Say you start with 1000 observations from a standard normal distribution. Then the mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 1, ignoring sample error. If you multiply every observation by Beta and add Alpha, then the new results will have a mean of Alpha and a standard deviation of Beta. Or, do the reverse. Start with a normal distribution with mean Alpha and standard deviation Beta. Subtract Alpha from all observations and divide by Beta and you wind up with the standard normal distribution.

What role do z-scores play in the transformation of data from multiple distributions to the standard normal distribution?

None.z-scores are linear transformations that are used to convert an "ordinary" Normal variable - with mean, m, and standard deviation, s, to a normal variable with mean = 0 and st dev = 1 : the Standard Normal distribution.


What is the formula to convert normal distribution to the standard normal distribution?

If a variable X, is distributed Normally with mean m and standard deviation s thenZ = (X - m)/s has a standard normal distribution.


What is the relationship between the Z-score for Normal Distribution and Continuous Probability?

There is no real relationship. Probabilities for the Normal distribution are extremely difficult to work out. The z-score is a method used to convert any Normal distribution into the Standard Normal distribution so that its probabilities can be looked up in tables easily. There are infinitely many types of continuous probability distributions and the Normal is just one of them.


What is the percentile rank if the raw score is 34?

It is not possible to convert a raw score into a percentile without knowing the distribution of scores and key parameters of the distribution. Since none of this information is provided, it is not possible to give a sensible answer.


How does the 5 year rule for qualified distributions apply can the original 68K be withdrawn without tax or penalty at any time after that as a nonqualified distribution or will a 10 percent penalty?

We will make a guess that this is a question about the qualified distributions and nonqualified distributions from a ROTH IRA account. Age 59 1/2 also will be a factor that will apply to the 10% early withdrawal penalty.The below information is available by going to the IRS gov website and using the search box for Publication 590 (2009), Individual Retirement Arrangements and go to chapter 2Are Distributions Taxable?You do not include in your gross income qualified distributions or distributions that are a return of your regular contributions from your Roth Ira's. You also do not include distributions from your Roth IRA that you roll over tax free into another Roth IRA. You may have to include part of other distributions in your income. See Ordering Rules for Distributions , later.Is Roth Distributions a Qualified Distribution?Additional Tax on Early DistributionsIf you receive a distribution that is not a qualified distribution, you may have to pay the 10% additional tax on early distributions as explained in the following paragraphs.Distributions of conversion and certain rollover contributions within 5-year period. If, within the 5-year period starting with the first day of your tax year in which you convert an amount from a traditional IRA or rollover an amount from a qualified retirement plan to a Roth IRA, you take a distribution from a Roth IRA, you may have to pay the 10% additional tax on early distributions. You generally must pay the 10% additional tax on any amount attributable to the part of the amount converted or rolled over (the conversion or rollover contribution) that you had to include in income. A separate 5-year period applies to each conversion and rollover. See Ordering Rules for Distributions , later, to determine the amount, if any, of the distribution that is attributable to the part of the conversion or rollover contribution that you had to include in income.Ordering Rules for DistributionsIf you receive a distribution from your Roth IRA that is not a qualified distribution, part of it may be taxable. There is a set order in which contributions (including conversion contributions and rollover contributions from qualified retirement plans) and earnings are considered to be distributed from your Roth IRA.


Is it possible to convert YPbPr output to Coaxial output?

Not generally no. There would be no point. The easiest is to convert the standard yellow video out to coax with an RF modulator


What is a z-score used for?

The z-score is used to convert a variable with a Gaussian [Normal] distribution with mean m and standard error s to a variable with a standard normal distribution. Since the latter is tabulated, the probability of an outcome as extreme or more compared to the one observed is easily obtained.

When should you convert metric measurements to standard US measurements?

You should convert metric measurements to standard US measurements when you need to communicate with someone who is more familiar with the US system, or if the specific context or requirements you are dealing with call for the use of standard US measurements.

Are solar energy transport and distributions costs high?

Once you convert the solar energy to electrical energy, it makes no difference where it came from. Distribution of such energy is exactly the same, whether it came from solar energy, a nuclear power station, a tidal power station, a geothermal power station, etc.
