Dúvidas comuns
What does this bell curve graph show?
A bell curve graph plots the frequency of values around a central mean. When a dataset is approximately normal, the curve is highest near the mean and tapers on either side.
How should I read this bell curve graph?
Bell curve graphs are useful for discussing the centre and spread of a dataset, but they should not be used to assume normality without checking the data.
Can I adapt this bell curve graph example?
Yes. Replace the title, labels and values with your own data, then check that the prompt still describes every important element in the chart.
