Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image shows a problem involving a normal distribution with mean and standard deviation . The shaded region represents the probability of obtaining a value greater than 1. You're asked to shade the corresponding region under the standard normal curve (a normal distribution with and ).
Steps to approach this:
-
Standardize the value: To find the corresponding region under the standard normal curve, we need to convert the value to a z-score using the formula: For this problem: So, the z-score corresponding to in this distribution is .
-
Shade the region: In the standard normal distribution, you would shade the area to the right of . This represents the probability of obtaining a value greater than 1 in the standard normal curve.
In the bottom graph, you need to shade the area from to the right.
