Find the indicated​ z-scores shown in the attached graph.
 
First note that the shaded region is an area in between two​ z-scores. This means that the region is not a cumulative area from the left and to solve requires working instead with regions that are cumulative areas from the left.​ 
 
Thus, to find the​ z-scores in this​ situation, one needs to find the cumulative areas to the left of each unknown​ z-score.
 
While either the Standard Normal Table or technology can be used to find the corresponding​ z-score, in this​ problem, use the table.
 
The two values must be approached individually.​
 
First, consider the​ z-score for the lower 0.4649 to the left of z=0.
The area to the left of this​ z-score is not given in the problem directly and must be found using the inner areas given.
 
Note that 0.5 of any Standard Normal Distribution lies to the left of z=0 and that each half is divided into two unequal regions by the unknown​ z-scores.
 
The larger region is known from the problem statement to be 0.4649 and the smaller region is the one to the left of the desired​ z-score.
 
If the region of this area is​ known, then the Standard Normal Table can be used to find the​ z-score.
 
Using the fact that 0.5 of the distribution lies to the left of z=​0, this smaller region is 0.5 − 0.4649 = _________.
 
Using the cumulative area from the​ left, locate the closest area in the body of the Standard Normal Table and identify the​ z-score corresponding to the lower _________.
 
Round the value to the nearest two decimal places.
 
The​ z-score for the lower 0.0351 is _________.
 
To find the second​ z-score, find the total cumulative area to the left of the upper​ z-score.
 
This is found by summing the three regions to the left of the​ z-score.
The first two larger regions are given in the problem statement as 0.4649
each.
 
The third region was found earlier to be _________  when determining the first​ z-score.
 
Thus, the sum of these three regions is 0.4649 + 0.4649+ _________ = ?
 
​Now, find the​ z-score corresponding to _________ in the Standard Normal Table. Round the value to the nearest two decimal places.
 
z≈ 1.81
 
​Therefore, the​ z-scores are approximately _________  and __________???
