Approximation to Binomial Distribution
Not what you're looking for?
If np ≥ 5 and nq ≥ 5 estimate P (fewer than 2) with n= 13 and p= 0.4 by using the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution if np < 5 or nq <5 then state that the normal approximation is not suitable.
Select the correct choice below and if necessary fill in the answer box to complete our choice.
P ( fewer than 2)=
The normal approximation is not suitable
