Hi, can you help me answer this question, please, thank you!

Answer 1

Given:

mean, u = 0

standard deviation σ = 1

Let's determine the following:

(a) Probability of an outcome that is more than -1.26.

Here, we are to find: P(x > -1.26).

Apply the formula:

$z=\frac{x^{\prime}-u}{\sigma}$

Thus, we have:

$\begin{gathered} P(x>-1.26)=\frac{-1.26-0}{1} \\ \\ P(x>-1.26)=\frac{-1.26}{1}=-1.26 \end{gathered}$

Using the standard normal table, we have:

NORMSDIST(-1.26) = 0.1038

Therefore, the probability of an outcome that is more than -1.26 is 0.1038

(b) Probability of an outcome that
