Step-by-step explanation:
If we approximate the binomial distribution with a normal distribution, we have to apply a correction factor for the fact that we are now dealing with a continuous variable instead of a discrete one, as it was with the binomial distribution.
The probability of no more than 35 defective CDs: P(X<35)
In this case, as X=35 is not included in the interval, we start the interval from X=35-0.5=34.5.
being Pb the probability under the binomial distribution and Pn the probability under the normal distribution.
The area for the normal distribution is the one below X=34 (or P(X<34)).
In order to subtract fractions, we must find a common denominator, then subtract the numerators.
The common denominator (LCM(3, 5)) is 15.
We must multiply the first numerator by 5, because 3*5=15 and the second numerator by 3 because 5*3=15.
We get .
All we need to do now is subtract the numerators: .
The answer is 14/15.
