How to draw this ``semi normal'' curve

TeX - LaTeX Asked on September 27, 2021

I am a new user …use texmaker on Windows 8. No real idea how to draw a curve like this.enter image description here

Here a solution using TikZ and pfgplots:

documentclass[tikz,border=5mm]{standalone}
usepackage{pgfplots}

begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
begin{axis}[
    xlabel=t,
    ylabel=y]
    addplot[blue] coordinates {
(41,0)(70,4)(97,9)(125,15)
(151,23)(176,31)(201,39)(227,49)
(255,62)(279,76)(301,90)(323,108)
(342,126)(363,146)(385,166)(406,184)
(429,199)(454,211)(481,218)(506,221)
(538,222)(567,218)(595,211)(621,200)
(645,186)(669,172)(693,158)(720,146)
(748,140)};
end{axis}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}

enter image description here

Edit: As requested, here the MATLAB code to extract the coordinated of the curve from an image (make sure only the curve is in the image and not the axis; you will need to clean/crop the image before you can use the following code):

I=imread('image.png');
[x, y]=find(I(:,:,1)<60);
% reduce the number of coordinates by factor 5
idx = 1:5:length(x);
x(idx) = [];
y(idx) = [];
% print out the coordinates so that they can be copied to your LaTeX editor
[y x-max(x)] %transform output as needed

Edit: In case you have the coordinates of the curve you want to plot generated somehow outside, you can go for an easy was to include the data from external files like this:

documentclass[tikz,border=5mm]{standalone}

usepackage{filecontents}
begin{filecontents}{data.dat}
41 0
70 4
97 9
125 15
end{filecontents}

usepackage{pgfplots}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
begin{axis}[
    xlabel=t,
    ylabel=y]
    addplot[blue] table {data.dat};
end{axis}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}

Note: The filecontentspart does not contain all the data points of your curve but instead the first three - it is just to illustrates the used technique. And when you generate your data file outside you do not need to define the data within you TeX file at all.

Try this, not the smart one but can solve ur problem, you can scale the pic by changing the number in [scale=1] in row 8, I used geogebra, drawed your curve and expert as tikz code.

An adapt of your image with bezier curves using Mathcha.

documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
usepackage{tikz}
begin{document}
tikzset{every picture/.style={line width=0.75pt}}
begin{tikzpicture}[x=0.75pt,y=0.75pt,yscale=-1,xscale=1]
draw   (425.5,209) -- (102.5,209) -- (102.5,106) ;
draw [color={rgb, 255:red, 74; green, 115; blue, 226 }  ,draw opacity=1 ][line width=1.5]    (106.5,204) .. controls (144,200.5) and (211,190.5) .. (245,161.5) .. controls (279,132.5) and (325.5,122) .. (356,149.5) .. controls (386.5,177) and (408.5,168) .. (427.5,170) ;

An approximate analytic solution would be

      documentclass[margin=2mm]{standalone}
        usepackage{tikz}
        
        begin{document}
        begin{tikzpicture}[>=latex]
        draw[->] (-1,0)-- (13,0) node [at end,right]{$x$};
        draw[->] (0,-1) -- (0,8) node[at end, right]{$y$} ;
draw[domain=0:13, samples=51, thick] plot (x,{0.8/(exp(-0.6*(x-3.7))+0.2) +3.3*exp(-0.1*(x-6.3)^2)} );
        end{tikzpicture}
        end{document}
