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
