1 Section 6 3B: Finding probabilities involving Z scores The probability that a number in the z distribution is less than a given z value is the area under the z curve that is LEFT of the z value The area under the z curve that is to the left of a given Z value represents the probability of selecting one number from the z distribution and having that number be less than the Z value. Find P( z < 2.1 ) If we want to know the probability of selecting one number from the z distribution and having that number be less than the negative z value of 2.1 we need to find the area to the left of z = 2.1 The yellow area to the left of z = 2.1 represents P( z < 2.1) z = Find P( z < 2.7 ) If we want to know the probability of selecting one number from the z distribution and having that number be less than the positive Z value of 2.7 we need to find the area to the left of z = 2.7 The yellow area to the left of z = 2.7 represents P( z < 2.7) 0 z= 2.7 We use two different tables to help find the area to the left of a given z value or z score. The Negative Z Scores Table The Positive Z Scores Table is used to find the area that is is used to to find the area that is to the left of a negative z value to the left of a positive z value z = z= 2.7 Section 6 3B Lecture Page 1 of Eitel

2 The Negative Z Scores Table The Negative Z Scores Table is used to find the area that is to the LEFT of a negative z value. z = The vertical line in the middle of the graph divides the total area of 1 in half. The area to the left of this line is All the shaded areas to the left of a negative Z value will be less than.5000 The 2 decimal place Z score is the negative 1 decimal place z value from the left column (in red) with an additional decimal place from the row on top (in red) The 4 decimal place number in yellow at the intersection of the left column z value (in red) and top row z value (in red) is the area to the LEFT of that given negative z score The Z Table only gives areas to the left of a Z value. Negative Z Scores Standard Normal (Z) Distribution: Area to the LEFT of Z This is only a portion of the entire Negative z Score Table Section 6 3B Lecture Page 2 of Eitel

3 Example 1A Finding the area to the left of a negative Z score Find P( z < 1.86 ) The area under the z curve that is to the left of a given z value represents the probability of selecting one number from the z distribution and having that number be less than the z value. number be less than the z value of 1.86 we need to find the area to the LEFT of z = 1.86 The number at the intersection of the 1.8 row and the 0.06 column is Negative Z Scores This means that the area to the left of z = 1.86 is the area to the left of z = 1.86 is.0314 left tail area =.0314 z = negative value If the area to the left of z = 1.86 is.0314 then P( z < 1.86 ) = Section 6 3B Lecture Page 3 of Eitel

4 Example 1B Finding the area to the Right of a negative Z score Find P( z > 1.86 ) The area under the z curve that is to the right of a given z value represents the probability of selecting one number from the z distribution and having that number be more than the z value. number be more than the z value of 1.86 we need to find the area to the RIGHT of z = 1.86 The number at the intersection of the 1.8 row and the 0.06 Negative Z Scores column is This means that the area to the LEFT of z = 1.86 is The vertical line drawn at the value of z divides the area under the z curve into two areas. The yellow area is to the left of the z value and the white area is to the right of the z value. the area to the left of z = 1.86 is.0314 The total of the yellow and white areas is 1 the area to the right of z = 1.86 is =.9686 left tail area =.0314 right tail area =.9686 z = so If the area to the Left of Z = 1.86 is.0314 then the area to the Right of Z = 1.86 is =.9686 P( z > 1.86 ) = =.9686 Section 6 3B Lecture Page 4 of Eitel

5 Example 2A Find the area to the left of a negative Z score Find P( z < 1.02 ) The area under the z curve that is to the left of a given z value represents the probability of selecting one number from the z distribution and having that number be less than the z value. number be less than the z value of 1.02 we need to find the area to the LEFT of z = 1.02 The number at the intersection of the 1.0 row and the 0.02 column is Negative Z Scores This means that the area to the left of z = 1.02 is the area to the left of z = 1.02 is.1539 left tail area =.1539 z = 1.02 negative value 0 If the area to the left of z = 1.86 is.1539 then P( z < 1.02 ) = Section 6 3B Lecture Page 5 of Eitel

6 Example 2B Finding the area to the Right of a negative Z score Find P( z > 1.02 ) The area under the z curve that is to the right of a given z value represents the probability of selecting one number from the z distribution and having that number be more than the z value. number be more than the z value of 1.02 we need to find the area to the RIGHT of z = 1.02 the area to the left of z = 1.02 is.1539 the area to the right of z = 1.02 is =.8461 left tail area =.1539 right tail area =.8461 z = If the area to the Left of Z = 1.02 is then the area to the Right of Z = 1.02 is P( z > 1.02 ) = =.8461 Section 6 3B Lecture Page 6 of Eitel

7 Example 3 Find the area to the left of a negative Z score A Special Case for z = P( z < ) number be less than the z value of we need to find the area to the left of z = Two negative Z scores with 3 decimal places are used in this course. These two 3 decimal place values and the areas to the left of them are listed separately at the bottom of the table. The cells at the bottom of the negative z scores table show that the area to the left of Z = is Negative Z Scores Z scores of 3.5 or less use.0001 AREA Z Score AREA Z Score This means that the area to the LEFT of z = 1.86 is P( z < ) = Finding the area to the Right of a negative Z score P( z > ) number be greater than the z value of we need to find the area to the right of z = If the area to the Left of Z = 1.02 is then the area to the Right of Z = is =.9950 P( z > ) = =.9950 Section 6 3B Lecture Page 7 of Eitel

8 Example 4 Find the area to the left of a negative Z score A Special Case for z = P( z < ) number be less than the z value of we need to find the area to the left of z = The cells at the bottom of the negative z scores table show that the area to the left of Z = is Negative Z Scores Z scores of 3.5 or less use.0001 AREA Z Score AREA Z Score This means that the area to the left of z = is P( z < ) = Finding the area to the Right of a negative Z score P( z > ) number be greater than the z value of we need to find the area to the right of z = If the area to the Left of Z = is then the area to the Right of Z = is =.9500 P( z > ) =.9500 Section 6 3B Lecture Page 8 of Eitel

9 The Positive Z Scores Table The Positive Z Scores Table is used to find the area that is to the left of a positive z value. z = 2.1 The vertical line in the middle of the graph divides the total area of 1 in half. The area to the left of this line is All the shaded areas to the left of a positive z value will be more than.5000 The 2 decimal place z score is the positive 1 decimal place z value from the left column (in red) with an additional decimal place from the row on top (in red) The 4 decimal place number in yellow at the intersection of the left column z value (in red) and top row z value (in red) stands for the area to the LEFT of that given z score The Z Table only gives areas to the left of a Z value. Positive Z Scores Standard Normal (Z) Distribution: Area to the LEFT of Z This is only a portion of the entire Positive z Score table Section 6 3B Lecture Page 9 of Eitel

10 Example 5 Finding the area to the left of a positive Z score P( z < 1.41 ) number be less than the z value of 1.41 we need to find the area to the LEFT of z = 1.41 The number at the intersection of the 1.4 row and the 0.01 Positive Z Scores column is This means that the area to the left of z = 1.41 is the area to the left of z = 1.41 is.9207 left tail area =.1539left tail area = z =1.41 positive value P( z < 1.41 ) = Finding the area to the Right of a positive Z score P( z > 1.41 ) number be more than the z value of 1.41 we need to find the area to the RIGHT of z = 1.41 The total of the yellow and white areas is 1 so the right area (in white) = 1 the left area If the area to the Left of Z = 1.41 is then the area to the Right of Z = 1.41 is =.0793 P( z > 1.41 ) = =.0793 Example 6 Section 6 3B Lecture Page 10 of Eitel
