Find the associated 𝑧-score for each of the following standard normal areas. a. Lowest 6 percent b.

Highest 40 percent c. Lowest 7 percent

a. 𝑧 = −1.555 (the area 0.06 is halfway between 0.0606 and 0.0594). Excel: 𝑧 = −1.5488.

b. 𝑧 = 0.25 (the closest area to 0.6 is 0.5987). [Excel would give 𝑧 = 0.2533.]

c. 𝑧 = −1.48 (closest area is 0.0694). [Excel would give 𝑧 = −1.4758.]
