You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Use a graphing calculator to get the following normal distribution\r

\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Note: Let me know your calculator model so I can help you find the commands necessary to get this distribution.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The blue dot is the mean \"mu=5.3\". This point is at the center of the distribution. \r

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The left green dot is one standard deviation below the mean and it's value is: \"mu-sigma=5.3-1.3=4.0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The right green dot is one standard deviation above the mean and it's value is: \"mu%2Bsigma=5.3%2B1.3=6.6\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The left pink dot is two standard deviations below the mean and it's value is: \"mu-2sigma=5.3-2%2A1.3=2.7\"\r
