QUESTION:

Draw two normal curves that have the same mean but different standard deviations. Describe the similarities and differences

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

The mean is represented by the peak of the normal curve.Since the two normal curves should have the same mean,the peak of the two normal curves should occur at the same location.

The standard deviation affects the width of the normal curve. Since the two normal curves should have different standard deviations,one of the normal curves should be wider than the other normal curve.
