There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

What is the distribution of absolute values of a random normal variable?

It is the so-called "half-normal distribution." Specifically, let X be a standard normal variate with cumulative distribution function F(z). Then its cumulative distribution function G(z) is given by Prob(|X| < z) = Prob(-z < X < z) = Prob(X < z) - Prob(X < -z) = F(z) - F(-z). Its probability distribution function g(z), z >= 0, therefore equals g(z) = Derivative of (F(z) - F(-z)) = f(z) + f(-z) {by the Chain Rule} = 2f(z) because of the symmetry of f with respect to zero. In other words, the probability distribution function is zero for negative values (they cannot be absolute values of anything) and otherwise is exactly twice the distribution of the standard normal.


What is the z value for a normal distribution?

If a random variable X has a Normal distribution with mean m and standard deviation s, then z = (X - m)/s has a Standard Normal distribution. That is, Z has a Normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. Probabilities for a general Normal distribution are extremely difficult to obtain but values for the Standard Normal have been calculated numerically and are widely tabulated. The z-transformation is, therefore, used to evaluate probabilities for Normally distributed random variables.


What proportion of a normal distribution is located between z-0.90 and z 0.90?

0.368 or 36.8%.And you should specify that it is a standard normal distribution.0.368 or 36.8%.And you should specify that it is a standard normal distribution.0.368 or 36.8%.And you should specify that it is a standard normal distribution.0.368 or 36.8%.And you should specify that it is a standard normal distribution.


What properties distinguishes standard normal distribution from other normal distribution?

The normal distribution can have any real number as mean and any positive number as variance. The mean of the standard normal distribution is 0 and its variance is 1.
