find the probability that 200 tosses of a fair die we will obtain at most 30 fives
Solution
find the probability that 200 tosses of a fair die we will obtain at most 30 fives
n=200
p=1/6=0.1667
normal approximation to binomial used
Expectation = np = 33.34
Variance = np(1 - p) = 27.782222
Standard deviation = 5.2709
For at most 30 ,With correction factor, we consider 30.5
Z value for 30.5, z=(30.5-33.34)/5.2709 = -0.54
P(at most 30 fives)
=P( z <-0.54)
= 0.2946
