A true-false exam has 48 questions and an answerer has to choose the correct alternative.Matt has not prepared to the exam at all, and he just guesses randomly on each question. Lisahas prepared to the exam better and her probability of answering a question correctly is 3.A passing score is 30 or more correct answers. Compare the probability that Lisa passes theexam with the probability that Matt passes is. Use normal approximation.

Let X be the number of correct answer in the true false exam. n= 48 sample size of questions.
