AP Statistics· difficulty 4/5

A binomial X has n = 100, p = 0.5.

mu = ? Bin(100, 0.5)

Using normal approximation, what are mean and SD?

  • A

    mean 50, SD 25

  • B

    mean 50, SD 50

  • C

    mean 100, SD 5

  • D

    mean 50, SD 5

    check_circle

Explanation

Mean = np = 50. SD = sqrt(np(1-p)) = sqrt(25) = 5.
