The document provides instructions for calculating probabilities using the normal distribution. It describes:
1) Entering values for the mean (mu), standard deviation (sigma), and a value (x) to calculate probabilities.
2) Using the NORMSDIST function in Excel to calculate the probability of values falling below or above x.
3) Dragging the formula down to calculate multiple probabilities, such as P(X<=13) and P(13<=X<=18).

Mean denoted by mu and standard deviation is denoted by sigma put the value in mu and sigma put the prob. Of panel A in 1000 Put the formula in panel B (=norm.dist. (panel B X value, mu, sigma, true) fixed the value of mu and sigma by using f4 and enter the function drag the function to panel C put the formula on panel D (=1-panel C) and enter it copy the formula of panel C and paste on panel E where P(X<=13) then drag the formula and then put formula in P(13<=X<=18) [=p(X<=18)-P(X<=13)] enter the formula get the answer copy the formula of panel C and paste on panel f where P(X<=13) and drag the function and then write 1- before the formula put the formula on P(13<=X>=18) [=p(X>=18) +P(X<=13)] enter the formula get the answer
