Finding the area under the normal curve:

1. Between 0 and z value:
Look up the z value in the table to get the area.


2. In any tail:
a. Look up the z value to get the area.
b. Subtract the area from 0.5000.


3. Between two z values on the same side of the mean:
a. Look up both z values to get the areas.
b. Subtract the smaller area from the larger area.


4. Between two z values on opposite sides of the mean:
a. Look up both z values to get the areas.
b. Add the areas.


5. To the left of any z value, where z is greater than the mean:
a. Look up the z value to get the area.
b. Add 0.5000 to the area.




6. To the right of any z value, where z is less than the mean:
a. Look up the z value in the table to get the area.
b. Add 0.5000 to the area.


7. In any two tails:
a. Look up the z values in the table to get the areas.
b. Subtract both areas from 0.5000.
c.Add the answers.
