To answer these questions properly, let’s first clarify what kind of distribution $X$ represents, as the initial prompt is incomplete.

What kind of distribution is $X$?

Based on the options provided:

• Standard Normal Distribution: This is a specific type of normal distribution where the mean $\mu = 0$ and the standard deviation $\sigma = 1$.
• Chi-Square Distribution: This is a distribution for a variable that is the sum of squared standard normal variables.
• Binomial Distribution: A discrete distribution representing the number of successes in a fixed number of independent Bernoulli trials.
• Normal Distribution: A general distribution characterized by a bell-shaped curve, defined by a mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$.

If $X$ follows a Standard Normal Distribution:

• The mean of the distribution is $0$.
• The standard deviation is $1$.

If $X$ follows a Normal Distribution:

• The mean $\mu$ is not fixed; it would depend on the specific normal distribution you are dealing with.
• The standard deviation $\sigma$ is also not fixed and depends on the specific normal distribution.

Conclusion:

• If $X$ is a Standard Normal Distribution:
  • Mean: $0$
  • Standard Deviation: $1$

If $X$ is not explicitly stated to be standard normal but just normal:

• Mean: $\mu$ (depends on the specific distribution)
• Standard Deviation: $\sigma$ (also depends on the specific distribution)

Please clarify if you need more detailed explanations, or if the variable $X$ follows a general normal distribution. Would you like to explore further?

Here are 5 related questions to deepen understanding:

1. How does the variance relate to the standard deviation in normal distributions?
2. What are some applications of the normal distribution in real-world problems?
3. How does the Central Limit Theorem relate to the normal distribution?
4. What is the cumulative distribution function (CDF) for a normal distribution?
5. How would you compute probabilities for values in a normal distribution?

Tip: The standard deviation measures how spread out values are from the mean.
