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.

(c) On what interval is g concave downward? (Enter your answer using interval notation.)
2. Graph the function f(x)=e* −1. Label three points on the graph (one should be the intercept) with
corresponding ordered pairs (round to one decimal place) and label the asymptote with its equation. Write the
domain and range of the function in interval notation. Make your graph big enough to see all important features.
You may show the final graph only.
