8.7 Using the Normal-Curve Table
- Key Idea 1: A statistic with a continuous uniform distribution can take on any number at all from the lowest to the highest possible value...
Discussion
- A normal-curve table applies to z statistics and provides areas (probabilities): it provides the area up to z.
- You can use a table to find a probability that corresponds to a specified number z.
With most statistical software, you can also find that probability.Example
- Similarly, you can use a table to find the z-score that corresponds to a probability.
With most statistical software, you can also find the z-score.Example
