Question

What proportion of a normal distribution corresponds to z scores greater than 1.04?

Answer 1

0.1492 is the correct answer.

Answer 2

We would need to look over the z table to find the area under the standard normal distribution curve to the left of z = 1.04. Then we'll subtract it from 1 to get the proportion of a normal distribution corresponding to z scores greater than 1.04.
By looking at the z table, we can see that the area to the left of z = 1.04 is 0.8508. So the proportion of a normal distribution to the right of z = 1.04 is 1 – 0.8508 =  0.1492.

The answer is 0.1492.
