a normal curve is bell-shaped
true any normal curve must be bell-shaped otherwise it would not meet the criteria of being a normal curve

what do the symbol n mean in a binomial distribution
in a binomial distribution the symbol n means the number of sucesses

when exanmining over a period of equally spaced time intervals or in some sequential order, is control charts useful
yes control charts are useful when exaniming over a period of equally spaced time intervals or in some sequential order.

it is symmetrical about thr vertical line through the mean.. this would be a property of....
this is a property of a normal curve
200
a normal curve must not be symmetrical
false a normal curve must be symmetrical

in a binomial distribution the symbol r means
the symbol r would mean in a binomial distribution the number of sucesses
200
a widely used measure of variability or diversity used in statistics and probability theory
standard deviation
300
approxmately 99.7% of the data values will lie within one standard deviation on each side of the mean
no due to the empirical rule approxmately 68% of the data values will lie within one standard deviation on each side of the mean NOT 99.7%
300
approxmately 95% of the data values will lie within two standard deviations on each side of the mean..... this is true due to the ....
the statement is a fact due to the EMPIRICAL RULE
300
normal curves are symmetrical with a z peek
false normal curves are symmetrical but they are bell shaped not with a z peek
300
dealing with a binomial distribution what do the symbol q mean
the symbol q means the probability of sucess
300
indicates upper and lower control limits and often include a central (average) line
control charts
400
using the normal distribution table as z values increase, do the areas to the left increase
yes in using a normal distrbution table as z values increase, so do the areas to the left increase
400
in a binomial distribution np stands for ....
number of trails x number of suceesses
400
tails of a normal curve gets closer to the x axis and then go away
false tails of a normal curve gets closer to the x axis but not go away
400
when you take the product of np in a binomial distribution what is that equal to be
when you take the product of np it would be equal to be the MEAN in a binomial distribution

is the mean under the peak of the normal curve
yes the mean is always under the peak of a normal curve

used for examining data over a period of time
control charts are used for examining data over a period of time

taking the product of npq and square rooting it you will end up with
in a binomial distribution when you take the product of npq and square root it you will end up with the STANDARD DEVIATION
500
states that for a normal distribution nearly all values lie within 3 standaed deviations of the mean also know as the three sigma rule
empirical rule
