consider situations in your work or home that could be addressed through a continuous probability distribution. Describe the situation and the variables, and determine whether the variables are normally distributed or not. How could you change these to a normally distributed dataset?

Answer 1

What are the probabilities that
your home will have a fire?
your home will be flooded?
your home will be robbed?
your home will get cockroaches or ants?
you'll oversleep?
you'll get a raise?
you'll fail a test?
a family member will get very sick?

I'm sure you can think of others.

Answer 2

I'm not so sure on those examples. They are all discrete events.

How about continuous versions, such as

the water depth during a flood
how long you are likely to sleep
the temperature of fevers during family illnesses

Answer 3

Oops! I didn't consider the adjective, "continuous."
