Let Z denote a standard normal random variable. Find: (a) P(1.33 < Z < 2.44) (b) a real number k such that P(Z > k) = 0.9000. (c) Find P(Z^2 + 3Z + 2 > 0)

If $Z$ is a standard normal random variable, show that for $x>0$ (a) $P[Z>x\}=P\{Z<-x\}$; (b) $P\{|Z|>x\}=2 P[Z>x\}$; (c) $P\{|Z|<x\}=2 P\{Z<x\}-1$.
