True or False In any normal distribution, the mean, median, mode, and standard deviation are all at the same position on the horizontal axis.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

Assume that you used Minitab statistical package to generate the individual binomial probabilities when n = 100 and  = .042, and then generate the individual Poisson probabilities for  = 4.2 . Do you expect the probabilities obtained in both cases to be similar or different? Explain.

Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2
