Let Z denote a random variable with a standard normal distribution.

  1. Evaluate: Pr {-0.42 < Z < 1.67}
    1. 0.3212
    2. 0.3372
    3. 0.3401
    4. 0.6153
    5. 0.9525

Solutions

Expert Solution

P( -0.42 < z < 1.67 ) = p (z < 1.67) - p(z < -0.42)

= 0.952540 - 0.337243

= 0.615298

~= 0.6153

So option (d) is correct choice.
