What is the approximate area of the unshaded region under the standard normal curve below? Use the portion of the standard normal table given to help answer the question.

A normal curve with a peak at 0 is shown. The area under the curve shaded is 1 to 2.

The z score is a score used in statistics to determine by how many standard deviations ti the raw score above or below the mean. If the raw score is above the mean then the z score is positive while If the raw score is below the mean then the z score is negative, It is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

From the normal distribution table, The area under the curve shaded is 1 to 2 = P(1 < z < 2) = P(z < 2) - P(z < 1) = 0.9772 - 0.8413 = 0.1359 ≈ 0.14

The area under the curve shaded is 1 to 2 is 0.14

What are probabilities?

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of an event

The shaded region represents the probability of the z-scores

The shaded region 1 to 2 is represented as:

P(1 < z < 2) =

Using the probability of z-score, we have the formula

P(1 < z < 2) = P(z < 2) - P(z < 1)

From the given standard normal table:

P(z < 2) = 0.9772

P(z < 1) = 0.8413

So, we have:

P(1 < z < 2) = 0.9772 - 0.8413

P(1 < z < 2) = 0.1359

Approximate

P(1 < z < 2) = 0.14

Hence, the area under the curve shaded is 1 to 2 is 0.14
