Part 1
Draw a sketch. Choose the correct graph below.
A.
z=-1.29
z=1.71
A graph with a bell-shaped curve, divided into 3 regions by 2 lines from top to bottom, one on the left side and one on the right side. Moving from left to right, the region right of the second line is shaded. The z-axis below this line is labeled "z=1.71". The z-axis below the first line is labeled "z=negative 1.29".
B.
z=-1.29
z=1.71
A graph with a bell-shaped curve, divided into 3 regions by 2 lines from top to bottom, one on the left side and one on the right side. Moving from left to right, the region left of the first line is shaded. The z-axis below this line is labeled "z=negative 1.29". The z-axis below the second line is labeled "z=1.71".
C.
z=-1.29
z=1.71
A graph with a bell-shaped curve, divided into 3 regions by 2 lines from top to bottom, one on the left side and one on the right side. The region between the 2 lines is shaded. Moving from left to right, the z-axis below the first line is labeled "z=negative 1.29". The z-axis below the second line is labeled "z=1.71".
Part 2
