Use the Normal Distribution table to find the proportion of
Use the Normal Distribution table to find the proportion of the normal curve that is
At or above a z-score of 1.25
At or below a z-score of -1.00
Between the z-scores of 1.50 and .25
Between the z-scores of 1.00 and .50
Solution
a)
To get the area above a z score, we
1. Get the left tailed area using a table.
2. Subtract the area from 1.
Thus,
P(z>1.25) = 1 - P(z<1.25) = 0.8944 = 0.1056 [ANSWER]
***************
b)
The table readily gives this to you,
P(z<-1.00) = 0.1587 [ANSWER]
******************
c)
We subtract the left tailed area of these two z scores to have
P(0.25<z<1.50) = 0.5987 - 0.9332 = 0.3345 [answer]
******************
d)
The same way as C,
P(0.50<z<1) = 0.8413 - 0.6915 = 0.1498 [ANSWER]
