Question: For a normal distribution, use the given z-scores to find the requested probability:

Probability is greater than or equal to a z score of 2.

I drew a distribute (picture this: the mean of 0 set at the middle and a line drawn at 2 shaded to the right).

But how do I go about finding the area of the shaded region?

The table reads "less than" so you do 1 - (the z-score table value corresponding to 2)
use the z-score table to find the portion of the population below 2

the number should be something like .9772

the probability of a z-score above this is ... 1 - .9772
