Probability Sheet using Cards and Dice $\downarrow$ 『 Question 8 What percent of the standard normal distribution $\mathrm{N}(\mu=0, \sigma=1)$ is found in the region $\mathrm{Z}>0.96$ ? $16.85 \%$ $83.15 \%$ $96.00 \%$ $27.72 \%$ - Previous Not saved

Solution

Step 1 :First, we calculate the cumulative distribution function (CDF) at 0.96 for a standard normal distribution \(N(\mu=0, \sigma=1)\). The CDF is the probability that a random variable takes a value less than or equal to a certain value. In this case, we find that the CDF at 0.96 is approximately 0.8314723925331622.

Step 2 :Next, we want to find the probability that the random variable takes a value greater than 0.96. This is given by \(1 - \text{CDF}\). So, we subtract the CDF from 1 to get approximately 0.16852760746683781.

Step 3 :Finally, we convert this probability to a percentage by multiplying by 100. This gives us approximately 16.85276074668378%.

Step 4 :The percentage of the standard normal distribution that is found in the region where Z > 0.96 is therefore approximately 16.85%. This matches one of the options given in the question, so we can conclude that our calculation is correct.

Step 5 :The final answer is \(\boxed{16.85\%}\).
