1. Find the z-score that splits the distribution at the point where 25% is in the lower tail. (i.e., z scores associated with p = .2500) 2. If the proportion of scores in the body of the distribution is .90, what proportion is in the tail?

2. Draw a vertical line through a normal distribution for each of the following z-score locations. Determine and state whether the tail is on the right or left side of the line for the z-score as presented and then find the proportion in the tail accounting for the fact that the Appendix B table only presents proportions for positive z-scores. a. z=-1.00 b. z=2.25 c. z=-0.20 d. z=1.30

For the following distribution of z-scores location, determine whether the the tail is on the right or left side: z = 2.00 Answer: z = .50 Answer: z = -1.50 Answer: z = -1.00 Answer: z = -.25 Answer:

Find the indicated z-score. Be sure to draw a standard normal curve that depicts the solution. Find $z$ -scores that separate the middle $99 \%$ of the distribution from the area in the tails of the standard normal distribution.
