Using the Text find the proportion of the total area identified with the following statements:
above a z score of 1.28
between the mean and a z score of 1.28
below a z score of - 1.0
Solution
a)
Using a table/technology, the right tailed area of this is
P(z > 1.28 ) = 0.100272568 [answer]
***************
b)
z1 = lower z score = 0
z2 = upper z score = 1.28
Using table/technology, the left tailed areas between these z scores is
P(z < z1) = 0.5
P(z < z2) = 0.899727432
Thus, the area between them, by subtracting these areas, is
P(z1 < z < z2) = 0.399727432 [answer]
***************
c)
Using a table/technology, the left tailed area of this is
P(z < -1 ) = 0.158655254 [answer]
