Which of the following statements are NOT correct about Standard Normal Distribution? (A) The probability curve of the Standard Normal Distribution is a bell-shaped curve. Choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
(A), (B) and (D) only (A), (B) and (C) only (A) and (D) only (C) and (D) only |
(C) and (D) only |
The correct answer is Option (4) → (C) and (D) only (A) The standard normal curve is bell-shaped → correct. By definition, the probability density curve of a normal distribution is symmetric and bell-shaped. (B) Z-score gives distance from mean in standard deviation units → correct. he formula $Z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ measures exactly how many standard deviations an observation is from its mean. (C) Z-score is negative if the value is above mean and positive if below mean → incorrect, it is positive above mean and negative below mean. (D) Probability between $\mu-\sigma$ and $\mu+\sigma$ is about $68.27\%$, not $95.45\%$ → incorrect. 95.45% corresponds to the interval μ ± 2σ. Final answer: (C) and (D) |
