The normal curve approaches, but never touches the x-axis as it extends farther and farther away from the mean. We also know that the total area under the curve equals 1. Think about this a little. Think about what is happening as the curve extends out, forever, to the left and right. For the discussion, I would like you to talk about, in your own words, how you think it is possible to measure the area between the normal curve and the x-axis if it never touches the x-axis.
