Week 3 Discussion: Determining a Normal Distribution

When trying to determine probabilities, one must first assess whether the variable would have a normal distribution. Using the tools from this course, what are some methods that could be used to determine whether a variable has a normal distribution?

SOLUTION 

Yes, it is true that we need to know if the data follows a normal distribution before we can attempt to calculate the probabilities. Whether or not the data or variables are normally distributed may be determined by using normality tests. We may use these procedures and tests to learn whether the data set’s variables follow a normal distribution. The tests and procedures are summarized simply below.…..please click the icon below to purchase the solution at $5
