Answer:

The points from the left;

71, 74 , 77, 80, 83, 86 , 89

Explanation:

Here, we want to label the normal curve given the mean and the standard deviation

From what we have, the central part is the mean while the other parts are deviations from the mean

We will label the graph starting from the left to the right

1 is 3 SD from the mean (negatively)

That will be 80-3(3) = 80-9 = 71

2 is 2 SD away

That will be;

80 -2(3) = 80-6 = 74

The 3rd part is 1 SD away

That will be 80-3 = 77

The midpoint is for the mean which is 80

The point after this will be;

80 + 3 = 83

The point after this will be;

83 + 3 = 86

Next is

86 + 3 = 89
