Chapter 9: The Normal Probability Distribution

Figure 9-28:

Area for

P

(-1.99

z

0.66)

Example 9-7

:

Find the area under the standard normal distribution curve

between

= -2.32 and

= 1.91.

Solution:

This is equivalent to finding

P

(-2.32

1.91). That is, we

need to find

P

(-2.32

1.91). Using the

Normal Probability

Distribution

workbook to solve, we get the value of 0.9618. Thus,

P

(-2.32

1.91) = 0.9618. The result is shown in

Figure 9-29
