Question

True or false: Under appropriate circumstances, many discrete random variables can be described by the normal distribution. True false question. True False

Answer 1

Answer: False, normal distribution describes continuous random variables and not discrete random variables

Step-by-step explanation: To describe discrete random variables other patterns of distributions can be used like binomial distribution. Therefore it is not recommended to use normal distribution for them.

Although in rare cases values of discrete variables can be approximated via normal distribution too but these won't be accurate values hence highly unstable.
