Respond to one of the following options in your initial post, citing at least one specific credible source in support. Question on credible sources? See the Scholarly, Peer-Reviewed, and Other Credible Sources (Links to an external site.).

Option 1

• Determine whether there is any link between the normal distribution and Variation 2: Standard Deviation (With a Digression on Eggroulette) (Links to an external site.) where we relied on statements such as “about two-thirds of observations are within one standard deviation of the mean.”
• Briefly discuss.

Option 2

• State an example of a variable that follows a normal distribution.
• State one way knowing this is useful in your professional or personal life.
• Briefly elaborate on your example.

Option 3

• Identify the minimum number of data points needed to generate a normal distribution.
• Create a data set of that size, and show that it meets the first three conditions for a Normal Distribution in section 5.1 on page 164 of the text.
