A certain flight arrives on time, 83% of the time. Suppose 123 flights are randomly selected. Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate probability that: A: exactly 99 flights are on time B: at least 99 flights are on time C: fewer than, 103 flights are on time D: between 103 and 114 inclusive are on time
