Answer:

(1) A Normal approximation to binomial can be applied for population 1, if <em>n</em> = 100.

(2) A Normal approximation to binomial can be applied for population 2, if <em>n</em> = 100, 50 and 40.

(3) A Normal approximation to binomial can be applied for population 2, if <em>n</em> = 100, 50, 40 and 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a random variable <em>X</em> following a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n </em>and <em>p</em>.

If the sample selected is too large and the probability of success is close to 0.50 a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied to approximate the distribution of X if the following conditions are satisfied:

  • np ≥ 10
  • n(1 - p) ≥ 10

The three populations has the following proportions:

p₁ = 0.10

p₂ = 0.30

p₃ = 0.50

(1)

Check the Normal approximation conditions for population 1, for all the provided <em>n</em> as follows:

n_{a}p_{1}=10\times 0.10=1

Thus, a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied for population 1, if <em>n</em> = 100.

(2)

Check the Normal approximation conditions for population 2, for all the provided <em>n</em> as follows:

n_{a}p_{1}=10\times 0.30=310\\\\n_{c}p_{1}=50\times 0.30=15>10\\\\n_{d}p_{1}=40\times 0.10=12>10\\\\n_{e}p_{1}=20\times 0.10=6

Thus, a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied for population 2, if <em>n</em> = 100, 50 and 40.

(3)

Check the Normal approximation conditions for population 3, for all the provided <em>n</em> as follows:

n_{a}p_{1}=10\times 0.50=510\\\\n_{c}p_{1}=50\times 0.50=25>10\\\\n_{d}p_{1}=40\times 0.50=20>10\\\\n_{e}p_{1}=20\times 0.10=10=10

Thus, a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied for population 2, if <em>n</em> = 100, 50, 40 and 20.

An 8 foot square floor is to be covered with square tiles measuring 8 inches on each side. If each tile
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 inches in a foot.

Therefore in 8 feet there are 96 inches

Therefore the square floor is 96 * 96.

Therefore the area of the square floor is 9216 inches squared.

Each tile is 8 inches by 8 inches meaning it has an area of 64 inches squared.

9216 / 64 = 144.

Therefore 144 tiles are needed to tile the floor

Since each tile is 50 cents, 144 * 0.5 = 72

Therefore it costs 72 dollars to tile the floor.
