standard deviation of 1. Draw a graph and Assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Bone density test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and find P16, the 16th percentile. This is the bone density score separating the bottom 16% from the top 84%. Which graph represents P16? Choose the correct graph below. OA. В. C. P16 P16 P16 P16 The bone density score corresponding to P16 is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Continuous Probability Distributions
Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could count from 0 to a trillion seconds, billion seconds, so on indefinitely. A discrete probability distribution consists of only a countable set of possible values.
Normal Distribution
Suppose we had to design a bathroom weighing scale, how would we decide what should be the range of the weighing machine? Would we take the highest recorded human weight in history and use that as the upper limit for our weighing scale? This may not be a great idea as the sensitivity of the scale would get reduced if the range is too large. At the same time, if we keep the upper limit too low, it may not be usable for a large percentage of the population!
