Question
Find the equation for the standard normal distribution by substituting 0 for $\mu$ and 1 for $\sigma$ in the equation$$y=\frac{e^{-(X-\mu)^{2} /\left(2 \sigma^{2}\right)}}{\sigma \sqrt{2 \pi}}$$
Step 1
The equation becomes: $$y=\frac{e^{-(X-0)^{2} /\left(2 \sigma^{2}\right)}}{\sigma \sqrt{2 \pi}}$$ which simplifies to: $$y=\frac{e^{-X^{2} /\left(2 \sigma^{2}\right)}}{\sigma \sqrt{2 \pi}}$$ Show more…
