*Note: population
*Note: sample size n (knowing population SD)
and to understand these z-values represent the area under the standard normal curve to the left of the z-value
Below: z = 0, z = ± 1, z= ±2 , z= ±3 are plotted.
Note: z = 0 (x value the mean) 50% of the area under the curve is to the left and %50 to the right
