Answer to Question 1

Recall the property of symmetry. The area to the left of 0 to - 1.33 is the same as for the area to the right of 0 to 1.33 . Go down the left most column of the standard normal table to the row with 1.3 and right across the rows until in the column headed at the top with .03. The value is 0.4082, which is the area between z = 0 and z = -1.33.
