\n" ); document.write( "The syntax is normalcdf(smaller, larger, µ, σ).
\n" ); document.write( "Note: The -9999 is used as the smaller value to be at least 5 standard deviations from the mean.
\n" ); document.write( "P(x ≤ 16) = normalcdf(-9999, 16, 16, .7) = .5
\n" ); document.write( "For the normal distribution:
\n" ); document.write( "one standard deviation from the mean accounts for about 68.2% of the set
\n" ); document.write( "two standard deviations from the mean account for about 95.4%
\n" ); document.write( "and three standard deviations from the mean account for about 99.7%.
\n" ); document.write( "Important to Understand z -values as they relate to the Standard Normal curve:
\n" ); document.write( "Below: z = 0, z = ± 1, z= ±2 , z= ±3 are plotted.
\n" ); document.write( "Note: z = 0 (x value the mean) 50% of the area under the curve is to the left and 50% to the right
