Expert Solution

The area under a standard normal curve is 1 with its value ranging from - infinity to + infinity with its midpoint at 0. So, the required values from the Z-table can be calculated as follows:

(a) Required z value is such that area under the curve between midpoint and z is 0.20. Now, in standard normal table if we want such an area we see the values that give area between negative infinity to z , in our problem we thus want

(b) The calculation is similar to that of (a) thus we need to find z such that area between negative infinity and z is 0.48+0.5= 0.98 so approximately .

(d)
