The probability is .80 that a standard normal random variable is between -z and +z. The value of z is approximately:________

Respuesta :

The z value for the probability in the standard normal table is 1.29.

In this question,

Z-Score, also known as the standard score, indicates how many standard deviations an entity is, from the mean. A standard normal table (also called the unit normal table or z-score table) is a mathematical table for the values of ϕ, indicating the values of the cumulative distribution function of the normal distribution.

The value of probability is 0.80

A standard normal random variable is between -z and +z, So

P(-z < 0 < z) = 0.80

⇒ 2P(0 < z) = 0.80

⇒ P(0 < z) = [tex]\frac{0.80}{2}[/tex]

⇒ P(0 < z) = 0.40

From the standard normal table, z value for the probability 0.40 is

⇒ z = 1.29

Thus P(0 < 1.29) = 0.40

Hence we can conclude that the z value for the probability in the standard normal table is 1.29.
