Question
One graph in the figure represents a normal distribution with mean µ = 8 and standard deviation o = 3. The other graph represents a normal distribution with mean u= 13 and standard deviation o= 3.
Determine which graph is which and explain how you know.
8 13
Choose the correct answer below.
O A. Graph A has a mean of u = 13 and graph B has a mean of u =8 because a larger mean shifts the graph to the left.
O B. Graph A has a mean of u= 8 and graph B has a mean of u = 13 because a larger mean shifts the graph to the right.
O C. Graph A has a mean of p=8 and graph B has a mean of p= 13 because a larger mean shifts the graph to the left.
O D. Graph A has a mean of µ = 13 and graph B has a mean of u=8 because a larger mean shifts the graph to the right.
