Given that X is a binomial random variable with very large n,the binomial probability P(X ≤ 5) is approximated by the area under a normal curve to the left of
A) 5
B) −5
C) 5.5
D) 4.5
Normal Curve
A bell-shaped curve that represents the distribution of a dataset where most of the observations cluster around the central peak and the probabilities for values further away from the mean taper off equally in both directions.
Binomial Probability
The probability of achieving a specific number of successes in a fixed number of independent trials, each with the same probability of success.
