NORMAL DISTRIBUTION 1. Find the distribution: a. b. c. d. e. f. following probabilities‚ the random variable Z has standard normal P (0< Z < 1.43) P (0.11 < Z < 1.98) P (-0.39 < Z < 1.22) P (Z < 0.92) P (Z > -1.78) P (Z < -2.08) 2. Determine the areas under the standard normal curve between –z and +z: ♦ z = 0.5 ♦ z = 2.0 Find the two values of z in standard normal distribution so that: P(-z < Z < +z) = 0.84 3. At a university‚ the average height of 500 students of a course is 1.70 m; the standard

What is Normal? Lorber’s Believing is Seeing: Biology as Ideology In her article Believing is Seeing‚ Judith Lorber writes of the very fine line between gender and sex.

Tables of Normal Values (As of January 2013) Note: Values and units of measurement listed in these tables are derived from several resources. Substantial variation exists in the ranges quoted as “normal” and may vary depending on the assay used by different laboratories. Therefore‚ these tables should be considered as directional only. Some values (e.g. hormones) vary by gender‚ age‚ time of day and condition (e.g. pregnancy) so a text on endocrinology should be consulted for complete data
