  7. Empirical rule For a distribution that is symmetrical and bell-shaped (in particular, for a normal distribution): Approximately 68% of the data values will lie within one standard deviation on each side of the mean. Approximately 95% of the data values will lie within two standard deviations on each side of the mean. Approximately 99.7% (or almost all) of the data values will lie within three standard deviations on each side of the mean. 6.1 Graphs of Normal Probability Distributions

  10. How to make a control chart for the random variable x A control chart for a random variable x is a plot of observed x values in time sequence order. 1. Find the mean µ and standard deviation σ of the x distribution by (a) using past data from a period during which the process was in “in control” or (b) using specified “target” values for µ and σ. 2. Create a graph in which the vertical axis represents x values and the horizontal axis represents time. 6.1 Graphs of Normal Probability Distributions

  11. How to make a control chart for the random variable x 3. Draw a horizontal line at height µ and horizontal, dashed control-limit lines at µ ± 2σ and µ ± 3σ. 4. Plot the variable x on the graph in time sequence order. Use line segments to connect the points in time sequencing order. 6.1 Graphs of Normal Probability Distributions

  47. How to make the continuity correction Convert the discrete random variable r (number of successes) to the continuous normal random number variable x by doing the following: 1. If r is a left-point of an interval, subtract 0.5 to obtain the corresponding normal variable x; that is, x = r – 0.5. 2. If r is a right-point of an interval, add 0.5 to obtain the corresponding normal variable x; that is, x = r + 0.5. 6.4 Normal Approximation to the Binomial Distribution
