Critical Z-value 0.15

Given α = 0.15

Calculate the right-tailed and left-tailed critical value for Z

Calculate right-tailed value:

Since α = 0.15, the area under the curve is 1 - α → 1 - 0.15 = 0.85

Our critical z value is 1.0364

Excel or Google Sheets formula:
Excel or Google Sheets formula:=NORMSINV(0.85)
Calculate left-tailed value:

Our critical z-value = -1.0364

Excel or Google Sheets formula:
Excel or Google Sheets formula:=NORMSINV(0.15)
