The completed table is given below,

z0.10 z0.05 z0.025 z0.01 z0.005
1.28
1.645
1.96 2.33 2.575

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

02

Step 2. Find the value for z0.05.

The area 0.05is not found in the table. So, we can use area closest to 0.05which are 0.0495and 0.0505. Here, we use the average of the two z-scores 1.64and 1.65, which is -1.645. Thus, the z-score having area 0.05to its left under the standard normal curve is-1.645. By applying the symmetry property thez-score having area0.05to its right under the standard normal curve is,1.645.

03

Step 3. Find the value for z0.025.

The value of z-score for the area 0.025in the table is,-1.96. Thus, thez-score having area0.025to its left under the standard normal curve is,-1.96. By applying the symmetry property thez-score having area0.025to its right under the standard normal curve is1.96.

04

Step 4. Find the value for z0.01.

The z-score for the area 0.01is not found in the table. So, we use the area closest to 0.01, which is 0.0099. The z-score corresponding to that area is, -2.33. Thus, the z-score having area 0.01to its left under the standard normal curve is, -2.33. By applying the symmetry property the z-score having area0.01to its right under the standard normal curve is,2.33.

05

Step 5. Find the value for z0.005.

The area 0.005has no value in the table. So, we use area closest to 0.005, which are 0.0049and 0.0051. Here, we use the average of the two z-scores -2.57and -2.58, which is -2.575. Thus, the z-score having area 0.005to its left under the standard normal curve is, -2.575. By applying the symmetry property the z-score having area 0.005to its right under the standard normal curve is, 2.575.

College-Math Success. Researchers S. Lesik and M. Mitchell explore the difficulty of predicting success in college-level mathematics in the article "The Investigation of Multiple Paths to Success in College-Level Mathematics" (fraternal of Applied Reacuwh in Hreher Eiturarion, Vol. 5. Issue 1. pP, 48-57). One of the variables explored as an indicator of success was the length of time since a college freshman has taken a mathematics course. The article reports that the mean length of time is 0.18 years with a standard deviation of 0.624 years. For college freshmen, let x represent the time, in years, since taking a math course.

A . What percentage of times are at least 0 years?

b. Assuming that x is approximately normally distributed, tose normal curve areas to determine the approximate percentage of times that are at least 0 years.

c. Based on your results from parts (a) and (b), do you think that the length of time since taking a math course for college freshmen is approximately a normally distributed variable? Explain your answer.

The area under a density curve that lies between 5 and 6 is 0.728. What percentage of all possible observations of the variable are cither less than 5 or greater than 6 ?

In each part, find the area under the standard normal curve that lies between the specified z-scores, sketch a standard normal curve and shade the area of interest.

a. -1and 1

b. -2and 2

c. -3and 3

27. Lower Limb Surgery. The study "Intrathecal Sufentanil versus Fentanyl for Lower Limb Surgeries - A Randomized Controlled Trial" (Journal of Anesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, Vol. 27 . Issue 1. pp. 67-73) by P. Motiani et al. compares two different agents, intrathecal Sufentanil and fentanyl, used in enhancing the anesthesiology of patients receiving major lower limb surgery. One variable compared between the two agents was the amount of blood loss during the surgery. Based on the study, we will assume that using fentanyl, the amount of blood loss during major lower limb surgery is normally distributed with mean 283.3mland standard deviation 83.3ml. Find the percentage of patients whose amount of blood loss during major lower limb surgery using fentanyl is

a. Less than 304ml.

b. Between 221and429ml

c. More than450ml.
