A Gaussian distribution is the "official" term for the Normal distribution. This is a probability density function, of the exponential family, defined by the two parameters, its mean and variance.
A population is said to be normally distributed if the values that a variable of interest can take have a normal or Gaussian distribution within that population.
What else can I help you with?
What percentage of the normally distributed population lies within the plus or minus one standard deviation of the population mean?
68.2%
Why do population follow normal distribution?
The form of this question incorportates a false premise. The premise is that the data are normally distributed. Actually, is the sample mean which, under certain circumstances, is normally distributed.
Does a population have to be normally distributed in order to use the chi-square distribution?
No, but the approximation is better for normally distributed variables.
True or false a distribution of sample means is normally distributed with a mean equal to the population mean and standard deviation equal to the standard error of the mean?
True.
IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 If a certain statistician has an IQ of 140 what percent of the population has an IQ less than she does?
99.6% for
What will the sampling distribution of the mean be if a population is normally distribution?
Also normally distributed.
When is the sample mean over repeated samples from the same population or process not normally distributed?
Provided the samples are independent, the Central Limit Theorem will ensure that the sample means will be distributed approximately normally with mean equal to the population mean.
Why is the central limit theorem an important idea for dealing with a population not normally distributed?
According to the Central Limit Theorem, even if a variable has an underlying distribution which is not Normal, the means of random samples from the population will be normally distributed with the population mean as its mean.
When you draw a sample from a normal distribution what can you conclude about the sample distribution?
The answer depends on how the sample is selected. If it is a simple random sample, of size n, then it is distributed approximately normally with the same mean as the population mean.The answer depends on how the sample is selected.

Why is it important to know if the data is from a normally distributed population when calculating the mean?
Why wood u say that because that .
Does a population have to be normally distributed in order to use the chi-square distribution?
No, but the approximation is better for normally distributed variables.
True or false a distribution of sample means is normally distributed with a mean equal to the population mean and standard deviation equal to the standard error of the mean?
True.
When the population is normally distributed population standard deviation s is unknown and the sample size is n equals 15 the confidence interval for the population mean s is based on the?
The Z test.
IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 if a certain statistician has an IQ of 140 what percent of the population has an IQ less than he does?
About 98% of the population.
When doing a t-test what does normal distributed in population mean?
It means that the random variable of interest is Normally distributed and so the t-distribution is an appropriate distribution for the test rather than just an approximation.
