2.      using the normal curve table, determine the area of the standard normal distribution that is less than the following z-scores: a.      z = .30 b.      z = 1.75 c.      z = 2.42 d.      z = −.68 e.      z = −1.11 i need to see the answer and the formula doing this

The normal distribution pdf is

where
μ = population mean,
σ = population standard deviation

For a random variable x, the probability (area under the normal curve) is


Define z = (x - μ)/σ.
Then
dx = σ (dz)
and the area under the curve transforms to


This integral is evaluated numerically (trapezoidal or Simpson's rule). For the lower limit, a value of z = -4 instead of ∞ is sufficient for good accuracy.

For example, with the trapezoidal rule, use a step size of h = 0.05.
Between z = -4 to z = 0.3, there are 87 values.
Calculate the function values as y₀, y₁, y₂, ..., y₈₇.
y₀ + y₈₇ = 0.3815
y₁+y₂+ ... +y₈₆ = 12.1664
The area is
A = (0.05/2)*(0.3815 + 2*12.1664) = 0.025*24.7142 = 0.6179.

Results for specified values of z are
(a) z = 0.30,   Area = 0.6179
(b) z = 1.75,    Area = 0.9599
(c) z = 2.42,   Area = 0.9922
(d) z = -0.68,  Area = 0.2483
(e) z = -1.11,     Area = 0.1335
