Chapter 6: Problem 2 Probability and Statistics 4
Let X denote the total number of successes in 15 Bernoulli trials, with probability of success p = 0.3 on each trial. a. Determine approximately the value of Pr(X = 4) by using the central limit theorem with the correction for continuity. b. Compare the answer obtained in part (a) with the exact value of this probability.
