Answer 1

Answer:

The area is:

$P = 0.8641$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area under the standard normal curve equals the z probability.

We look for the area of the region that is not shaded.

That is, we look:

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

Then we must find

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

Looking in the standard normal probability table we have to:

$P(z< 1)= 0.8413$

$P (z <2) = 0.9772$

So:

$P(1 <z <2) =0.9772- 0.8413 \\\\P(1 <z <2) = 0.1359$

$P = 1-0.1359$

$P = 0.8641$
