In addition to Level 3, the student can make connections to real-world
applications.
Student can correctly:
 A) Interpret graphs of normal probability distributions
 B) Use normal distributions to approximate probabilities
 C) Find the standard normal distribution using z-scores
Mastery
 D) Find the area under the curve and the area of a standard normal
curve

3
 F) Transform a z-score to an x-value
 G) Find a specific data value of a normal distribution given the
probability
 H) Find sampling distributions and verify their properties
 I) Interpret and apply the Central Limit Theorem to find the probability
of a sample mean.
