Using the normal distribution, it is found that 63.18% of the area under the curve of the standard normal distribution is between z = − 0.9 z = - 0.9.
<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean and standard deviation
is given by:
- The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
- Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.
The area within 0.9 standard deviations of the mean is the <u>p-value of Z = 0.9(0.8159) subtracted by the p-value of Z = -0.9(0.1841)</u>, hence:
0.8159 - 0.1841 = 0.6318 = 63.18%.
