I. Multiple Choice. Choose The Letter That Best Answers The Following Questions

The document contains multiple choice and calculation questions about the normal distribution. It tests understanding of key properties like the normal distribution being continuous and symmetric, with the mean, median and mode always being equal. It also covers the percentages of the distribution that fall within standard deviations of the mean, how to standardize a normal distribution using z-scores, and calculating probabilities and areas under the normal curve.
