Assume that x is a binomial random variable with n = 100 and p = 0.4. Use a normal approximation to find each of the following probabilities. a. P(x ? 37) b. P(35 ? x ? 45) c. P(x ? 40) a. P(x ? 37) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) b. P(35 ? x ? 45) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) c. P(x ? 40) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

Step 1
Mean (μ) = np = 100 * 0.4 = 40 Standard deviation (σ) = √(np(1-p)) = √(100 * 0.4 * 0.6) = √(24) ≈ 4.89898 Show more…
