How the total area under the normal curve is equal to one?
Please see the link under "legitimate probability density function".
What is the area under the standard normal curve?
the standard normal curve 2
How does 1 sigma represent 68.8 percent of the total area under a normal curve?
1 sigma does not represent 68.8 percent of anything.The area under the standard normal curve, between -0.5 and +0.5, that i, the central 1 sigma, is equal to 0.68269 or 68.3%.
What is the area under the normal curve between Z0.0 and Z1.79?
What is the area under the normal curve between z=0.0 and z=1.79?
What is the total area under the normal distribution curve?
The area under the normal distribution curve represents the probability of an event occurring that is normally distributed. So, the area under the entire normal distribution curve must be 1 (equal to 100%). For example, if the mean (average) male height is 5'10" then there is a 50% chance that a randomly selected male will have a height that is below or exactly 5'10". This is because the area under the normal curve from the left hand side up to the mean consists of half of the entire area of the normal curve. This leads us to the definitions of z-scores and standard deviations to represent how far along the normal curve a particular value is. We can calculate the likelihood of the value by finding the area under the normal curve to that point, usually by using a z-score cdf (cumulative density function) utility of a calculator or statistics software.
