Hello! The full problem is:

Find the area in the right tail more extreme than z=2.18 in a standard normal distribution.

I am completely lost on this one. This is for my Stats II class that I just found out I had to take (I took Stats I over a year ago and retained almost nothing, unfortunately). This is an online class, and the linked text book literally has nothing helpful in how to determine this, so I'm honestly unsure of where to even start. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
 
[math]\Pr(Z>2.18)=1-\Pr(Z\le2.18)[/math]Look up the probability from the standard normal table/calculator.
 
There are a few types of z-score tables. Post back with an image of your table and you'll receive excellent help.
