Draw the Different normal curves.
Expert Solution

Step 1
The normal curve (or the bell-shaped curve) is a symmetric distribution that occurs naturally in a lot of different situations (for example: the IQ of the world, the height, blood pressure, salaries etc).
In statistics, the normal curve has some unique identifications:
- Mean=Median=Mode
- The Mean is the highest point of the curve
- The curve is symmetric (and resembles the shape of a bell)
- Mesokurtic

- Sheila's doctor is worried that she might develop gestational diabetes during her pregnancy. There is variation both in the actual glucose level and in the blood test that measures the level. A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if their glucose level is above 140 mg/dl one hour after consuming a sugary drink. Sheila's measured glucose level one hour after the sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution, with p = 125 mg/dl ando = 10 mg/dl. Fill in the following blanks with the correct options: (a) If a single glucose measurement is made, the probability that Sheila is diagnosed as having gestational diabetes is (0.0668, 0.1587, 0.2525, or 0.3173?). (b) Assuming that the population mean is 125 mg/dl, imagine that we repeat taking all possible samples of size 4 from the population, then only about 1.3 out of (10, 100, or 1,000?) sample means will have values as large as (125 or 140?) cm or even larger.arrow_forwarda residual is the distance between the data value in the line of best fit true or false?arrow_forwardThe histogram of the number of hours of sleep Stat 100 students reported getting each night roughly follows the normal curve with an average of 7.0 hours and a SD of 1.2 hours. a.
