IDENTIFIES REGIONS UNDER THE

NORMAL CURVE
CORRESPONDING TO DIFFERENT
STANDARD NORMAL VALUES
To convert a normal random variable X to a standard
normal variable Z, use the formula for calculating z-
score:
z-score for the population data
z-score for the sample data
Example: In a Math Test, given , and s=14. Find the z-
score value that corresponds to each of the following
scores (in two decimal places):

VARIABLE TO A STANDARD NORMAL
VARIABLE AND VICE VERSA
• To convert standard normal variable Z to a random variable/raw score X, use
the formula for calculating X:
raw score for population data
raw score for sample data
Example: Find the random variable X that
corresponds to the following:
