10. Let x be a binomial random variable with n = 150 and p = 0.4. Use the normal approximation
to find the following.
a) P(48 < X < 66)
μ = np = 60
o = √np(1-p) = 6
P(65.5) - P(47.5)
= $(0.917)-0(-2.08)
= 0.8024
b) P(X> 69)
P(X>69) = 1- P(X = 69.5) = 1−ø(-
c) P(X ≤ 70)
70.5-60.
69.5–60.
6
P(X <=70) = P(X = 70.5) = (-
-) = = 0.9599
-) = 0.0571
