Question

What does standardizing a normal distribution do to the mean?

Short answer

When you standardize a normal distribution, the mean becomes 0 and the standard deviation becomes 1

Step-by-step solution

Concept Introduction

For a real-valued gaussian distribution, a normal distribution is just a sort of continuous function.

Explanation

If a normal distribution is standardized then normal distribution will become standard normal distribution and then it can be represented as below,

$Z~N(0,1)$

Where,

$\mu =0$

$\sigma =1$
