For what value of a will P (−a < z < a) ≈ 0.90, and how will you shade a normal curve?
For a normal standard curve, the image is bell-shaped and symmetrical.
P (−a < Z < a) ≈ 0.90 for this probability since the area is symmetrical and normal hence the area below -a and above a will be equal. Since the area of the middle curve is 0.90 hence the area outside the a and below -a will be (1-0.90)/2 = 0.05.
Thus the -a score is calculated using excel formula for normal distribution which is =NORM.S.INV(0.05) this results in -a = -1.645
and thus the right tail a score will be +1.645.
So, P (−1.645 < z < 1.645) ≈ 0.90
