THE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION

If Z has a normal distribution with mean 0 and


variance 1, then, for each value of z, the table gives
the value of Φ(z), where

Φ(z) = P(Z ⩽ z).

For negative values of z, use Φ(–z) = 1 – Φ(z).

1. Representation of Data

1.1. Types of Data
A bar chart which represents continuous data
Bars have no space between them
Area of each bar is proportional to frequency

F requency = F requency Density × Class Width


For open ended class width, double the size of previous
class width and use this
If range ‘0 − 9’ then class width is ‘−0.5 ≤ x ≤ 9.5’
1.2. Stem-and-Leaf Diagrams
1.5. Cumulative Frequency Graphs
Used to represent data in its original form.
Each piece of data split into 2 parts; stem & leaf. Upper quartile = 75
Leaf can only by 1 digit and should be written in Lower quartile = 25
ascending order
Always include a key on your diagram. Interquartile Range = U pper Quartile − Lower Quart
When finding median & quartiles, draw in vertical and
horizontal dashed lines.
Join points together with straight lines unless asked to
draw a cumulative frequency curve

1.6. Skewness
Symmetrical: Median line lies in the middle of the box (i.e.
UQ – median = median – LQ)
Positively skewed: median line lies closer to LQ than UQ
(i.e. UQ – median > median – LQ)
Negatively skewed: median line lies closer to UQ than to
the LQ (i.e. UQ – median < median – LQ)

Advantage: contains accuracy of original data

Students: People who study French and Spanish

4.1. Basic Rules Rules of MEEs:

P (A and B) = 0
All probabilities lie between 0 and 1
P (A) = The probability of event A In other words, the probability of both events happening is 0,
P (A ) = 1 − P (A) = The probability of not A

because they can’t occur at the same time.
To simplify a question, represent info in tree diagram: P (A or B) = P (A) + P (B)
In other words, the probability of A or B happening, is just
their individual probabilities being added together. Example:
P(Get King AND Queen) = 0
P(Get King OR Queen) = 1/13 + 1/13

Rules of Not MEEs:

P (A and B) 
=0
Because of events can happen at the same time, so
{S08-P06} Question 7: probability of both events happening is not 0.
A die is biased so that the probability of throwing a 5 is 0.75
and probabilities of throwing a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6 are all equal. P (A or B) = P (A) + P (B ) − P (A and B)
The die is thrown thrice. Find the probability that the result is
1 followed by 5 followed by any even number. When adding P(A) & P(B), we counted the “middle part” twice,
Solution: so we must subtract it.
Probability of getting a 1 Example:
P(Get Kings or Hearts) = 4/52 + 13/52 – 1/52
1 − 0.75 = 0.25 1/52 comes from the king of hearts

P (X < 6) = 0.105 P (X > 12) = 0.258 np > 5 and nq > 5
For X < 6, the probability cannot be found on the tables
