We have been given an excerpt from the standard normal table and we're looking for a z -score from that table.
00:07
So i'll start by explaining what this is.
00:10
I'll draw a standard normal distribution.
00:14
The total area under this curve is 1 or 100 % and it is symmetric.
00:19
Its mean is 0.
00:21
So we're looking at the table in search of the value 0 .12.
00:26
The standard table is interested in the area between the z -score and 0.
00:33
So what we're saying is we know that this area here between z and 0 is 0 .12.
00:45
And we're looking for the z -score that meets that criteria.
00:49
And i know it's negative because we're just looking at negative z -scores.
00:52
So it's below the mean.
00:54
Now, i can't see 0 .12 in the table.
00:58
I can see, if i get some of this, we have minus 1 .1 and we have some other values here 0 .07 and 0 .08.
01:09
I can see that this leads up to 0 .1210 and this is 0 .1190...
