Explanation / Answer

The total area under the standard normal curve = 1

Given that , P(Z > z) = 0.7190

Here we want to calculate the Z score value corresponding to the shaded region

P(Z > z) = 0.7190

The Total area left of Z is P(Z < z)

i.e. P(Z < z) = 1 - 0.7190 = 0.281

The standard normal table gives the probabilities of left sided region.

So, find this probability 0.281 in the Z table

we get Z score = -0.58 ...........( From Z table)

OR By using excel command =NORMSINV(probability)

  =NORMSINV(0.281)

= -0.58 ...........( Answer)
