Question
which of the following lists the criteria for using a normal curve as a model for a distribution
answer choices:
the data values follow the empirical rule, the mean is in the center of the data, and the distribution is bell-shaped
the distribution is bell-shaped, the standard deviation is in the center of the data, and the data values follow the empirical rule
the data values follow the empirical rule, the standard deviation is in the center of the data, and the distribution is skewed to the left or right
the distribution is bell-shaped, the mean and the standard deviation are approximately equal and in the center of the data, and the data values follow the empirical rule

The correct answer is:
**the data values follow the empirical rule, the mean is in the center of the data, and the distribution is bell-shaped**
This selection includes the key characteristics necessary for a normal distribution: the bell-shaped curve, the mean being in the center of the data, and the ability to apply the empirical rule (68-95-99.7 rule) to describe the distribution of data within certain standard deviations from the mean.
