Since the normal distribution is symmetric, the area between -z and 0 must be the same as the area between 0 and z. Using this fact, you can simplify this problem to finding a z such that the area between 0 and z is .754/2=.377. If you look this value up in a z-table or use the invNorm on a calculator, you will find that the required value of z will be 1.16. Therefore, the area between -1.16 and 1.16 must be approximately .754.

What is the area between z equals 0 and z equals 2.24?

The question does not specify what z is but this answer will assume that it is the value of a random variable with a Standard Normal distribution. That being the case, the area under the curve between those values is 0.4875.


What area under the standard normal curve falls between the z value -1.5 and 2.5?

The area is 0.9270, approx.


What is estimated value of z such that an area of 15 lies to the right of z?

There cannot be such a value since the total area, being a probability, is 1.


How do you find the area to the right of the z-score?

Charts typically show and list the area to the left of the Z-Score value. To find the area to the right, just subtract the Z-Score value from 1; e.g. if the Z-Score value is .75 then take 1-.75 = .25.


What z value corresponds to an area of 0.9881 being to left of z?

2.224


For some positive value of Z the probability that a standard normal variable is between 0 and Z is 0.3340. the value of Z is?

0.97


What is the z value such that 50 percent of the total area lies to the right of the curve in a normal distribution?

The Z value is 0.


Given that Z is a standard normal random variable What is the value of Z if the area to the right of Z is 0.1401?

It is 1.17


What is the area under the normal curve between z equals 0.0 and z equals 2.0?

What is the area under the normal curve between z equals 0.0 and z equals 2.0?


What is the difference between z value and z score?

They refer to the same thing as do z-transformations.


In a standard normal distribution what z value corresponds to 17 percent of the data between the mean and z value?

z = ±0.44


What is the z-score for the area equals 0.7704?

In a standard normal distribution curve, one half of the area is .5 (or 50%). 0 is the middle value of the z-score. So, for an area of .7704, z must be negative. Also, the area from 0 to z (which is negative) must be equal to .2704. From the normal probability table, this value is -0.74 Therefore, the z-score for the area equals 0.7704 is -0.74
