“Is the data distribution normal?”
1.Translation: Is the histogram/dot plot bell-shaped?2.Does the greatest frequency of the data values occur at about the mean value?3.Does the curve decrease on both sides away from the mean?4.Is the curve symmetric about the mean?

What if the data is not symmetric?
Histogram Interpretation: Skewed (Non-Normal) Right

What if the data is not symmetric?
A normal distribution is a reasonable assumption.

Review
1. How can you determine if it is a Normal Distribution?
2. Bell Shaped Curve3. Peaks at the mean4. Curve decreases on both sides away from the
mean5. Curve is symmetric. Looks the same on both
side.

• Applies to normal distributions• Almost all data will fall within three standard
deviations of the mean
Empirical Rule
![Page 14: Normal Distribution and The Empirical Rule Get out your notes. Open Note Unit 3 Test on Friday](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062311/5a4d1b517f8b9ab0599a7df2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• 68% of the observations fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
• 95% of the observations fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
• 99.7% of the observations fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
Empirical Rule
If the data are normally distributed:

Your TurnRevisit the data you collected during the Fling Machine Instant Challenge. •Assume that you repeated launch cotton balls with your device. Using the mean and sample standard deviation of your data:
– Predict the range of travel distances within which 68% of cotton balls would fall
– Predict the range of travel distances within which 95% of cotton balls would fall

Review• What is the Empirical Rule?• Given a mean value of 10 with a standard
deviation of 2:– What range of values would 68% of the data fall in?– What range of values would 95% of the data fall in?– What range of values would 99.7% of the data fall
in?• Can you apply the Empirical rule to all sets of
data?
