The best option is C. 0.0823mean = np = 48*1/4 = 12 

SD = sqrt(npq) = sqrt(48 *1/4 *3/4) = 3 

aplying continuity correction for using a continuous distribution for a discrete one, 

"exactly 15" means 14.5 to 15.5 

z1= (14.5-12)/3 = 0.833 , z2 = (15.5-12)/3 = 1.167 

P(0.833 < z < 1.167) = 0.0808

Answer:

Correct answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find expected value of the event:

E(x)=n*p=48*0.25=12

And standard deviation of the event:

Var(x)=\sqrt{n*p*q} =\sqrt{48*0.25*0.75} =3

Then need to z value of normal distribution function for 15.5 and 14.5 correct answers:

z_{1}=(15.5-12)/3=1.167\\z_{2}=(14.5-12)/3=0.833

P(z_{1})=0.8790\\P(z_{2})=0.7967

P(15)=0.8790-0.7967=0.0823

Ps. Please find z table at the attachment.
