ANSWER:

Solution :

Step 1 of 5:

Given ZN(0,1)

Our goal is:

a). We need to find c, P(Zc)=0.1587

b). We need to find c, .

c). We need to find c, .

d). We need to find c,

e). We need to find c,

Now we have to calculate c value.

a).

Given, P(Zc)=0.1587.

Here we have to find c value.

P(Zc)=1-P(Zc)

P(Zc)=1-P(Zc)

P(Zc)= 0.1587

P(Zc)=1-0.1587

P(Zc)=0.8413

From the area under the normal table P(Z1)=0.8413.

Therefore c =1.
