For instance, if your BP is in the 30th percentile, it means your BP is higher than 30% of the population.**Understanding the Graphs and Calculations:**Graphs or diagrams typically used to determine these percentages usually involve the normal distribution curve, where:- The **mean** (μ) is at the center of the curve.- The **standard deviations** (σ) are marked on either side of the mean to show the spread of the data.**Calculation Methods:**- **Stage 2 High BP Calculation:** This involves finding the area under the normal distribution curve to the right of 160.- **Stage 1 High BP Calculation:** This involves finding the area under the normal distribution curve between 140 and 160.- **30th Percentile Calculation:** This
