Expert Solution

Φ(a) is the cumulative probability distribution which is equal to P(Z<a)

1) area to the left of 0.79

which is the P(Z < 0.79)=Φ(0.79)

The area to the left of z = 0.79 is= 0.7852

2)  area to the right of z = −2.10 is

which is the

P(Z > -a)

The probability of P(Z > –a) is P(a), which is Φ(a)= Φ(2.10)=0.9821

remember

P(Z<a)= Φ(a) and also  Φ(a) + Φ(–a) = 1

∴ Φ(–a) = 1 – Φ(a)

3)

P(a < Z < b) = P(Z < b) – P(Z < a),

P(Z < b) – P(Z < –a) = Φ(b) – Φ(–a)

= Φ(b) – {1 – Φ(a)}

SO,

P(-1.99 < Z < 0) = Φ(0) – {1 – Φ(-1.99)} =0.5-{1 – 0.0233}

The area between z = 0 and z = −1.99  is = 0.4767

4)

similarly as above ,

P(a < Z < b) = P(Z < b) – P(Z < a),

P(Z < b) – P(Z < –a) = Φ(b) – Φ(–a)

= Φ(b) – {1 – Φ(a)}

P(-1.31 < Z < 1.92) = Φ(1.92) – {1 – Φ(1.31)} =0.97257 - {1 – 0.9049}

Thus area between z = −1.31 and z = 1.92 is= 0.8775
