Normal Curve
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY SAMSUDIN N. ABDULLAH, Ph.D.
P(a<z<b) denotes the probability that the
z score is between a and b.
P(z>a) denotes the probability that the z
score is greater than a
P(z<b) denotes the probability that the z
score is less than a, where a and b are z-
score values.
