Answer:

a. P(0 < z < 3.00) = 0.4987

b. P(0 < z < 1.00) = 0.3414

c. P(0 < z < 2.00) = 0.4773

d. P(0 < z < 0.79) = 0.2852

e. P(-3.00 < z < 0) = 0.4987

f. P(-1.00 < z < 0) = 0.3414

g. P(-1.58 < z < 0) = 0.4429

h. P(-0.79 < z < 0) = 0.2852

Explanation:

Find the area under the standard normal probability distribution between the following pairs of​ z-scores.

a. z=0 and z=3.00

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< 0) = 0.5 and P (Z< 3.00) = 0.9987

Thus;

P(0 < z < 3.00) = 0.9987 - 0.5

P(0 < z < 3.00) = 0.4987

b. b. z=0 and z=1.00

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< 0) = 0.5 and P (Z< 1.00) = 0.8414

Thus;

P(0 < z < 1.00) = 0.8414 - 0.5

P(0 < z < 1.00) = 0.3414

c. z=0 and z=2.00

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< 0) = 0.5 and P (Z< 2.00) = 0.9773

Thus;

P(0 < z < 2.00) = 0.9773 - 0.5

P(0 < z < 2.00) = 0.4773

d. z=0 and z=0.79

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< 0) = 0.5 and P (Z< 0.79) = 0.7852

Thus;

P(0 < z < 0.79) = 0.7852- 0.5

P(0 < z < 0.79) = 0.2852

e. z=−3.00 and z=0

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< -3.00) = 0.0014 and P(Z< 0) = 0.5

Thus;

P(-3.00 < z < 0 ) = 0.5 - 0.0013

P(-3.00 < z < 0) = 0.4987

f. z=−1.00 and z=0

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< -1.00) = 0.1587 and P(Z< 0) = 0.5

Thus;

P(-1.00 < z < 0 ) = 0.5 - 0.1586

P(-1.00 < z < 0) = 0.3414

g. z=−1.58 and z=0

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< -1.58) = 0.0571 and P(Z< 0) = 0.5

Thus;

P(-1.58 < z < 0 ) = 0.5 - 0.0571

P(-1.58 < z < 0) = 0.4429

h. z=−0.79 and z=0

From the standard normal distribution tables,

P(Z< -0.79) = 0.2148 and P(Z< 0) = 0.5

Thus;

P(-0.79 < z < 0 ) = 0.5 - 0.2148

P(-0.79 < z < 0) = 0.2852
