Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image shows a problem that asks for the area of the shaded region under the standard normal distribution curve. The graph depicts a standard normal distribution with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. The shaded area is between the z-scores of and .
To find the area of the shaded region:
-
Look up the cumulative probabilities:
- For : The cumulative probability (from a standard normal table or using a calculator) is approximately .
- For : The cumulative probability is approximately .
-
Calculate the area between the z-scores:
Thus, the area of the shaded region is approximately 0.7235.
