f. Between -1.746 and 1.746
Explanation / Answer
You have to use t-score distribution table to answer these question
a) P(right of 2.12) = 1-P(left of 2.12)
P(right of 2.12) = 1-0.975
P(right of 2.12) = 0.025
b) P(left of 1.337) = 0.9
c) P(left of -1.746) = 0.050
d) P(right of 2.583) = 0.99
e) P(between -2.12 and 2.12) = P(left of 2.12) - P(left of -2.12)
P(between -2.12 and 2.12) = 0.975 - 0.0250 = 0.95
f) P(between -1.746 and 1.746) = 0.95 - 0.05 = 0.9
