Question

One interpretation of the z-score formula is that:

	a.	it transforms any normal distribution into standard normal distribution.
	b.	it converts a normal distribution into a continuous uniform distribution.
	c.	it measures the area between the mean of a normal distribution and any point on the distribution.
	d.	it measures the distance, measured in the same units as the data, between the mean of a normal distribution and any point in the distribution.
	e.	None of the above

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
