The video tutorial covers the normal distribution, emphasizing its central tendency measures: mean, mode, and median. It explains how to use standard deviations to understand population distribution within a normal curve. The tutorial also demonstrates how to apply Z-scores to calculate the percentage of a population within specific boundaries, using visual aids and examples to enhance understanding.

What are the three measures of central tendency that are the same in a normal distribution?

• Mean, Mode, and Median

• Mode, Range, and Variance

• Mean, Range, and Median

• Median, Variance, and Standard Deviation

What does one standard deviation away from the mean represent in a normal distribution?

• The entire population

• A significant portion of the population

• None of the population

• A small portion of the population

Approximately what percentage of the population falls within one standard deviation of the mean?

• 50%

• 68%

• 99.7%

• 95%

What percentage of the population is within two standard deviations of the mean?

• 50%

• 99.7%

• 95%

• 68%

What is the significance of a Z-score in a normal distribution?

• It calculates the variance

• It indicates the number of standard deviations away from the mean

• It measures the range of the data

• It shows the median of the data

How do you determine the percentage of the population between Z-scores of 1 and 2?

• By calculating the mean of the percentages

• By multiplying the percentages of the standard deviations

• By subtracting the percentage within one standard deviation from that within two

• By adding the percentages of all standard deviations

What is the percentage of the population between Z-scores of 1 and 2?

• 13.5%

• 95%

• 27%

• 68%

Why is it important to draw a diagram when working with Z-scores?

• To find the median

• To memorize the formulas

• To calculate the mean

• To visualize the distribution and understand the percentages

What is the total percentage of the population within three standard deviations of the mean?

• 100%

• 99.7%

• 95%

• 68%

Why do we not have reliable information about populations beyond three standard deviations?

• Because they are not measurable

• Because they are not part of the normal distribution

• Because they are too rare

• Because they are too common
