1. The problem asks to find the area under the standard normal curve to the left of $z=1.50$. 2. The standard normal distribution is a bell-shaped curve with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. 3. The area to the left of a $z$-score corresponds to the cumulative probability $P(Z \leq z)$. 4. To find this area, we use the standard normal table or a calculator that provides cumulative probabilities. 5. From the standard normal table or ALEKS calculator, the area to the left of $z=1.50$ is approximately: $$P(Z \leq 1.50) = 0.9332$$ 6. This means about 93.32% of the data lies to the left of $z=1.50$ under the standard normal curve. 7. For the graph, the region under the curve to the left of $z=1.50$ is shaded, representing this cumulative area. Final answer: The area under the standard normal curve to the left of $z=1.50$ is $0.9332$.
