    For a normal distribution only, for a population, not for particular sample.

    proportion between 1 standard deviation, independent of μ and σ, is given by:

    P (Z<1) - P (Z<-1)

    =0.841345-0.158655=0.682689

    =0.68 (to two places of decimal)

    proportion between 2 standard deviations, independent of μ and σ, is given by:

    P (Z<2) - P (Z<-2)

    =0.977250-0.022750=0.954500=0.95 (to two places of decimal)
