mChapter 5 Distribution – Exercise Answer Q1 a) P(Z < 1.47) = 0.9292 b) P(Z > 1.74) = 1 – 0.9591 = 0.0409 c) P(1.47 < Z < 1.74) = 0.9591 – 0.9292 = 0.0299 d) P(Z < 1.47) + P(Z > 1.74) = 0.9292 + (1 – 0.9591) = 0.9701 Q2 a) P(– 1.47 < Z < 1.74) = 0.9591 – 0.0708 = 0.8883 b) P(Z < – 1.47) + P(Z > 1.74) = 0.0708 + 0.0409 = 0.1117 c) If P(Z > A) = 0.025, P(Z < A) = 0.975. A = + 1.96. d) If P(–A < Z < A) = 0.6826, P(Z < A) = 0.8413. So 68.26% of the area is captured between –A = – 1.00 and A = + 1.00
