Show that if X is a normally distributed random variable with parameters mu and σ2, then then show that for each real number x we have:

фX(x)=ф[(x-m)/σ]
I have really hard time. Any possible hint is greatly appreciated.

I know that

Z= [X-μ]/σ or X=σ Z+μ

I also know that

f(x,μ,σ2)=1/ √(2πσ) e -(x-μ)2/(2σ2)=1/σ ф((x-μ)/σ)
