Chapter 6: Q.6.124 (page 283)
We have provided a normal probability plot of data from a sample of a population. In each case, assess the normality of the variable under consideration.

Short Answer
The plot does not have a nearly normal distribution.

A variable is normally distributed with a mean and standard deviation . Find the percentage of all possible values of the variable that
a. lie between and .
h. are at least .
c. are at most .
Explain why the percentage of all possible observations of a normally distributed variable that lie within two standard deviations to either side of the mean equals the area under the standard normal curve between and.
The area under the standard normal curve that lies to the left of a -score is always strictly between ------ and ------.
