Given a binomial distribution with ?n trials and probability ?p of success on any trial, a conventional rule of thumb is that the normal distribution will provide an adequate approximation of the binomial distribution if A. ??≥5np≥5 and ?(1−?)≤5n(1−p)≤5 B. ??≥5np≥5 and ?(1−?)≥5n(1−p)≥5 C. ??≤5np≤5 and ?(1−?)≥5n(1−p)≥5 D. ??≤5np≤5 and ?(1−?)≤5n(1−p)≤5
