6 (6, 12, 18, 24)

8 (8, 16, 24) because both have 24, that would be the answer.

2. There are 8 windows, all with the same perimeter. Each window's perimeter is 17.5 (17 1/2) so 8 windows would be 140 ft. (17.50 x 8 = 140)

Answer:

np = 81 , nQ = 99

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

X - B ( n = 180 , P = 0.45 )

Find:

Sampling distribution has an approximate normal distribution

Computation:

nP & nQ ≥ 5

np = n × p

np = 180 × 0.45

np = 81

nQ = n × (1-p)

nQ = 180 × ( 1 - 0.45 )

nQ = 99

$Therefore, sampling\ distribution\ has\ an\ approximately\ normal\ distribution.$
