Algebra.Com's Answer #571636 by ewatrrr(24785)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! For the normal distribution: Below: z = 0, z = ± 1, z= ±2 , z= ±3 are plotted. \n" ); document.write( "Area under the standard normal curve to the left of the particular z is P(z) \n" ); document.write( "Note: z = 0 (x value: the mean) 50% of the area under the curve is to the left and 50% to the right \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "..... \n" ); document.write( "mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. \n" ); document.write( "z = invNorm(.025) = X/1 \n" ); document.write( "invNorm(.025) = X = -1.96 \n" ); document.write( "invNorm(.975) = X = 1.96 \n" ); document.write( "... \n" ); document.write( "(-1.96, 1.96) \n" ); document.write( " |
