How do you find the normal approximation without using the continuity correction?

Let's say you want to compute the probability \mathbb P(a\le X\le b) where X converges in distribution to Y, and Y follows a normal distribution. The normal approximation (without the continuity correction) basically involves choosing Y such that its mean and variance are the same as those for X.

Example: If X is binomially distributed with n=100 and p=0.1, then X has mean np=10 and variance np(1-p)=9. So you can approximate a probability in terms of X with a probability in terms of Y:

\mathbb P(a\le X\le b)\approx\mathbb P(a\le Y\le b)=\mathbb P\left(\dfrac{a-10}3\le\dfrac{Y-10}3\le\dfrac{b-10}3\right)=\mathbb P(a^*\le Z\le b^*)

where Z follows the standard normal distribution.

1.) The deer population increases at a rate of 3% per year. There are 1253 deer this year. Write a function that models the deer
BabaBlast [244]
Exponential growth/decay rule with general function is:<span>y=y(0)<span>e<span>kt</span></span></span> with k is growth/decay constant rate.
(1) Deer population function y(0) = 1253 k
= 3% t
 = 6 (years)
  y(6) = 1253 . e^(0.03*6) ~ 1500 (deers)
: 1496 deers

In a shipment of 22 smartphones, 2 are defective. How many ways can a quality control inspector randomly test 4 smartphones, of
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Therefore the required ways are =190

Step-by-step explanation:

Combination: Combination is the number of selection of items from a collection of items where the order of selection does not matter.

Total number of smartphones =22

Defective phone = 2

Non defective phone = (22-2) =20

The control inspector randomly test 4 smartphones of which 2 are defective.

Non defective phone = 2

The ways to select 2 non defective phone is

^{20}C_2=\frac{20!}{2!(20-2)!} =\frac{20!}{2!18!}=\frac{19\times 20}{2} =190

The ways to select 2 defective phone is= ^2C_2=1

Therefore the required ways are = (190×1) =190
