Question

X denotes a binomial random variable with parameters n and p. For each exercise, indicate which area under the appropriate normal curve would be determined to approximate the specified binomial probability. P(4&amp;lt;X≤8)

The normal approximation for Binomial probability&amp;nbsp;P(4&amp;lt;X≤8)&amp;nbsp;is&amp;nbsp;P(4+0.5&amp;lt;X&amp;lt;8+0.5)P(4&amp;lt;X≤8)=(4+0.5&amp;lt;X&amp;lt;8+0.5)P(4&amp;lt;X≤8)=(4.5&amp;lt;X&amp;lt;8.5)Therefore, to approximate the binomial probability&amp;nbsp;P(4&amp;lt;X≤8)&amp;nbsp;determine the area between&amp;nbsp;4.5&amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;&amp;nbsp;8.5&amp;nbsp;under approximate normal curve.
