The normal distribution. What is the area under the normal distribution?? $$ 1 $$ What is required for a random variable $X$ to follow a normal distribution?? It has to be continious. How would you find $P(170 < X < 190)$ for the normal distribution?

What is the notation for a random variable?? Capital letters, $X$. What is the notation for the random variable $X$ taking a particular value $x$?? $$ P(X = x) $$ Can you explain $P(X = x) The probability that the outcome of the random variable $X$ was the specific outcome $x$.
