Formula Sheet
Mean for a DPD:
\[\mu=\sum_{i=1}^nx_i\cdot P(x_i)\]
Variance for a DPD:
\[\Big(\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^2\cdot P(x_i)\Big)-\mu^2\]
Standard Deviation for a DPD:
\[\sigma=\sqrt{\sigma^2}=\sqrt{\Big(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i^2\cdot P(x_i)\Big)-\mu^2}\]
Finding \(z\)-score:
\[z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\]
Finding normal value from \(z\)-score:
\[x=z\cdot\sigma+\mu\]
\[\mu_{\overline{x}}=\mu\]
\[\sigma_{\overline{x}}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\]
Converting \(\overline{x}\) to \(z\)-scores:
\[z=\frac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\Big(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\Big)}=\frac{\sqrt{n}\big(\overline{x}-\mu\big)}{\sigma}\]
