When do you use a normal distribution?
When studying the sum (or average) of a large number of independent variables.
A large number is necessary for the Central Limit Theorem to kick in - unless the variables themselves were normally distributed.
Independence is critical. If they are not, normality may not be assumed.

15 Find the probability that the month of February in a year 2008 may have 5 Tuesdays?
The probability is zero since Feb 2008 had 4 Tuesdays.
Because their interpretations are affected by their own life experiences.
The odds of each coin toss are 50-50. The coin has no memory; there is no record of what the last four tosses are. EVERY toss is at 50-50 odds.
How many permutations are in the word arithmetic?
10! permutations of the word "Arithmetic" may be made.
How do you calculate average bed rate?
bedrate1 +bedrate2 ... + bedraten-1 + bedraten

What is the probability of getting a face card or a red card?
The probability of getting a face card or a red card in a standard deck of 52 cards is (26 + 12 - 3) in 52 or 35 in 52 or about 0.6731.
26 red cards, 12 face cards, and 3 red cards that are also face cards.
What is the probability of choosing a blue or green shirt if there's 6?
Do you mean six shirts? Well, it would depend on the number of colored shirts:
EXAMPLES:
If say two were red, one blue, three green; the probability would be 4/6.
If say there were no blues, four white, one green, one purple; it would be 1/6.
Count the number of ways they can come up with that value compared to the total number of possible outcomes.
There are 6 different ways a die can fall.
There are therefore 36 different ways two dice can fall.
Of those, only 1 has a sum of 2: 1 on the first die and 1 on the second die (or "11", for short).
So the odds of rolling a 2 are 1/36.
There are 5 different ways to get a 6: 15 24 33 42 51, so the odds of rolling a six are 5/36.
The odds of rolling a 2 then a six are 1/36 * 5/36, or 5/1296.
What is sampling distribution of a statistic called?
The parent probability distribution from which the statistic was calculated is referred to as f(x) and cumulative distribution function as F(x). The sampling distribution and cumulative distribution of a statistic is commonly referred to as g(y) and G(y) where Y is the random variable representing the statistic. There are numerous other notations.
What do the repeating dots in a math problem mean?
The repeating dots, (Example: 1.333...) mean that the number is infinitely
defined, in other words, the number never ends. We can also make the previous
_
example look like this: It will have the same meaning. 1 .3 (With A bar over the 3) = 1.333...
The bar will indicate which decimal values are infinite.
Also please note that the bar should be above the numbers that are repeating
do not "abuse" the bar, It has the potential to get the question wrong.
Hope I helped! ~WonX~
If you toss a dice once what is the probability that 1 will come out?
"A" is singular, "dice" is plural. One "dice" is a "die".
Tossing one six sided die means the odds of the number 1 displaying is 1 out of 6.
Tossing two six sided dice means the odds of the number 1 displaying is zero, as at a minimum it will be 1 and 1, or 2.
Where else can probability be used?
"where else" implies that you already have some situations in mind. But you have chosen not to share that information. It is impossible for us to be sure that situations that we suggest in which probability may be used are not already on your list.
What is the relationship between the probability of an event and its compliment?

What does sample space of a probability event mean?
It means the set of all possible outcomes for the event.
