Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.

Is the result consistent with the 32% rate that is reported by
the candy maker?
No, because the confidence interval
does not include 32%.
Yes, because the confidence interval
includes 32%.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F5676b3d4-3668-4fa0-8d97-b5c98622081c%2Fd0498e7c-4055-4158-bb8b-ce31bb36b5ce%2Fes81xb_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
