Using the standard normal table, find the value for z0 that makes each statement correct. Enter your answer accurate to the second decimal place, i.e. X.XX where the first x could be 0 like 0.XX

P(Z < z0) = 0.9591 z0 =

P( -z0 < Z < z0 ) = 0.6730 z0 =

P(Z > z0) = 0.9864 z0 =

Solutions

Expert Solution

a) The standardized Z score at the given probability value can be calculated using excel formula or by Z score table. The formula used in excel is =NORM.S.INV(0.9591), this results in the Z score is 1.74.

so, P(Z < Z0) = 0.9591 Z0 = 1.74

b) Since the standardized Z score is calculated from a normal distribution which is symmetrical in nature so, if the probability between Zo is  0.6730, thus the probability at -Zo is (1-0.6730)/2 = 0.1635.

Hence using probability score 0.1635 and excel formula =NORM.S.INV(0.1635) the -Z score is computed as -Zo = -0.98 and using formula =NORM.S.INV(0.1635), Zo is computed as 0.98, thus

P( -Zo < Z < Zo ) =P( -0.98< Z< 0.98) = 0.8365-0.1635 = 0.6730

=> Zo = 0.98

c) Now P(Z > Zo) = 0.9864, since the Z score table and excel formula gives the probability value and Z score from the left of the symmetric distribution. so, P(Z > Zo) = 0.9864 is transformed as P(Z>-Zo) = 1-0.9864 = 0.0136. Now using the probability score in excel formula =NORM.S.INV(0.0136) the Z score is -2.21.

so, P(Z > Zo) = 0.9864. Zo = -2.21
