Answer #1

a) P(Z>0.3974) = 1 - P(Z\leq 0.3974) = 1 - \Phi(0.3974)

\Rightarrow P(Z>0.3974) = 1 - 0.654464

\Rightarrow P(Z>0.3974) = 0.345536

b) P(Z<0.0985) = \Phi(0.0985) = 0.539232

c) P(0\leq Z\leq z) = 0.4812

\Rightarrow P(Z\leq z) -P(Z<0)= 0.4812

\Rightarrow \Phi(z) -\Phi(0)= 0.4812

\Rightarrow \Phi(z) -0.5= 0.4812

\Rightarrow \Phi(z)= 0.9812

\Rightarrow z= \Phi^{-1}(0.9812) = 2.07919

d) P(-z\leq Z\leq z) = 0.9476

\Rightarrow P(Z\leq z) - P(Z<-z)= 0.9476

\Rightarrow \Phi(z) - \Phi(-z)= 0.9476

\Rightarrow \Phi(z) -[1 - \Phi(z)]= 0.9476

\Rightarrow 2\Phi(z) -1 = 0.9476

\Rightarrow \Phi(z)= \frac{1.9476}{2} = 0.9738

\Rightarrow z = \Phi^{-1}(0.9738)

\Rightarrow z = 1.93983 (ans)
