Re: Standard normal curve

I wrote a whole explanation to your question about whether I inherited it or did I get it from school? But obviously you did not read it. I erased it as I do not wish to share the details of my loser life with the entire internet.

Re: Standard normal curve

well, as far as i know, i am in good health. I have been blessed. I think i must also have a guardian angel, as i have had near brushes with death and walked away. Year before last I totaled two cars and walked away, when I wondered why i did.

Re: Standard normal curve

It is strange. I was so perfectly calm when the car hit water in the road. I held onto the steering wheel and said out loud, "Well, this is it." I hit a ditch and a heavy corvette sitting for sale in someone's yard.

Re: Standard normal curve

Are you saying you smashed someone's vette or yours?

Re: Standard normal curve

I talk too much and you are kind to listen. I will listen to you when I do not have to get up so early for classes.
I feel you are a good soul and I am usually right on the mark.
It is getting late here and i wish i could stay longer.

Re: Standard normal curve

someone else's vette. I have an old SUV and was driving my son's car. He has a nice one. I really wish I hadn't done that.

Re: Standard normal curve

You smashed your son's car and a vette! This happened twice that you totaled cars? Have you considered a bicycle?

Re: Standard normal curve

oh a bicycle???? I did have a crash on one and crashed my head. I think my nine lives is running out. My head hit the pavement and no helment. Ended up in ER and I will tell you about that sometime. It was dark and I made my way back to the house somehow. I laid down in the floor and wanted to sleep.
Then my son took me to the ER and I was ok the next day. I sure hit that road hard though. I have a hard head.
Goodnight again. smile

Re: Standard normal curve

Expand out:

Subtract 360 from both sides.

Divide both sides by .18
