Get a TI-83 or TI-84 calculator Press 2ND VARS 1 The lower value is 5.7 The upper value is 7.5 The µ is 6 The σ is 3 Once you have this: normalcdf(5.7,7.5,6,3) press ENTER read 0.231290364 and round to 0.2313 If you must do it the old fashioned way (with a table), you want to know what decimal fraction the shaded part (between the two z-values for x=5.7 and x=7.5, which we must calculate) is:We calculate the z-score for the right-most value 7.5: We calculate the z-score for the left-most value 5.7: If your table is the newer kind with negative z-values, look up z=0.50 in the z-column and the 0 column should read 0.6915. look up z=-0.10 in the z-column and the 0 column should read 0.4602. Subtract 0.6915-0.4602 = 0.2313. If your table is the older kind with no negative z-values, look up z=0.50 in the z-column and the 0 column should read 0.1915. look up z=0.10 in the z-column and the 0 column should read 0.0398. Add 0.1915+0.0398 = 0.2313. Sometimes the calculator method will differ in the last decimal place because the calculator is more modern and accurate than the old-fashioned table. Edwin
