[@Menoman07]

excuse me sir but there is a definite value for 0.25. it is located in -1.96. I was wondering whether this was a slight oversight in your end or there is another explanation regarding this as there are 2 possible places we can find the 25th percentile. The one in -1.96 and the one you chose

[@Deaa-uf8zs]

What is the (Z) for 84 percentile ??

[@BigSmokeEnthusiast]

Thank u, u saved me from suffering. New sub!!

[@nailahunxai4194]

Sir why we choose 1.28 in 90th percentile instead of 1.29 coz there was already 90 its self then why 😢

[@selamawittaye3034]

you saved my life sir thank you !!!!

[@crowsmathclass]

You’re welcome. Glad it helped.

[@computerscience-qo1tt]

Why do we look for negative z value in case of 25th percentile and positive z values for 97.5 and 95 percentile?

[@crowsmathclass]

We are on the left side of zero. Those are negative z values.

[@hishamhani3497]

[@gregvanriper795]

Hi Steve, I sure appreciate your time and expertise in statistical information and teaching. I am wondering if you could help me solve a problem. I received a test result for a chemical called 1-bromopropane. The LLOC is 4.0 The 75th percentile is 11 The 95th percentile is 46 My level is at 72. Would this be considered as high or not? Is there a way that I can calculate what percentile it is at based on the limited information that I have?

is it possible to do this without the table?

[@crowsmathclass]

You can use software. Excel or Google Sheets does a good job

[@alexsomerville5036]

Thank you so much

[@mrbeans6405]

how do you work out sigma and mean from only having values of area and Z value?!?

[@haraldriisager8594]

Do you also have the x values? If you do, just use z=(x-mean)/sigma for 2 different z and corresponding x values, and then just use a system of equations to solve for the mean and sigma.

[@ailanyt.7368]

Ahh these things itch my brain.

[@chrisclements3862]

awesmmmmm. any quick ways of figuring out my left from right? im using stat crunch and i dont know when i should use greater than or less than. thanks.

[@crowsmathclass]

The problems usually say greater than or less than. Or they will say above or below.

[@chrisclements3862]

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean 50 and standard deviation 7. Find the 78th percentile. I figured it out to be the percentile is 55.41 I had to guess at greater than or less than. Any advice?

[@williamb7574]

Is there a way to get the table on pdf?

[@crowsmathclass]

I have not looked but I’m sure there is a pdf on the internet.

[@redeemerarcher5309]

The standard normal (Z) table I have here is really different from yours completely.

[@crowsmathclass]

Yea. The one I’m using is more common. I don’t really care for the other one.

[@michellekayange2136]

Thank you

[@keepinupwithkeny6302]

Why do need to multiply by 5 ?

[@Shhhaikha]

To solve for X

[@denismunene5399]

Where is the table extracted from,,,, i want to solve a similar question

[@crowsmathclass]

I think I scanned it from a book. You can also google z table and print one out.
