Suppose that F(x) is the distribution function of r.v. X,if there exists a
nonnegative function f(x),(-<x<+),such that for any x,we have
F ( x)=P( X  x)=

years.
(2)If the instrument has already been used for 1 year and a half,

3. Normal distribution
The normal distribution are one the most important
distribution in probability theory, which is widely applied
In management, statistics, finance and some other areas.

A
Suppose that the distance between A,B is ,the
observed value of  is X, then what is the density
function of X ?

Suppose that the density function of X is specified by


X ~ f ( x) 

2
 x 

  x  
where  is a constant and >0 ,then, X is said to follows
a normal distribution with parameters  and 2 and
represent it by X~N(, 2).
Two important characteristics of Normal distribution
(1) symmetry
the curve of density function is symmetry
with respect to x= and
f()=max f(x)=


.
2 
(2)  influences the distribution

4.Standard normal distribution
A normal distribution with parameters =0 and
2=1 is said to follow standard normal distribution
and represented by X~N(0, 1)。
the density function of normal distribution is

The value of (x) usually is not so easy to compute
directly, so how to use the normal distribution table
is important. The following two rules are essential
for attaining this purpose.
Note:(1) (x)=1-(-x);
(2) If X~N(, 2),then
F ( x )  P{ X  x }  (

).

2. XN(,2), P{-3<X<+3}?
EX 2 tells us the important 3 rules, which are widely
applied in real world. Sometimes we take
P{|X-  |≤3} ≈1 and ignore the probability of
{|X-  |>3}

normally distributed with N(110,122).Now, choose a
