Question

find the area of the shaded region under the standard normal curve.

\\z = 0\\
\\z = 1.96\\

• 0.205
• 0.025

Explanation:

Identify the target area

Using the Standard Normal Distribution knowledge point

$$ P(Z > 1.96) $$

Find the cumulative probability

Using the Standard Normal Table knowledge point

$$ P(Z \le 1.96) = 0.9750 $$

Calculate the shaded upper tail area

Using the Standard Normal Distribution knowledge point

$$ P(Z > 1.96) = 1 - P(Z \le 1.96) = 1 - 0.9750 = 0.025 $$

Answer:

• 0.205
• 0.025 (Correct answer)
