Answer:

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)).
The only restraints on profit result from the restriction on the domain which in turn place a restriction on profit.
0≤k. Knives sold cannot be negative.
So the range of profit or p is:
p=[-500, +oo)
Profit increases as the number of knives sold increases. $200 more profit is gained by each sale of a knife.
4000=200k-500
4500=200k
k=22.5
Since k is for knives sold, it must be an integer value, so a $4000 profit is not possible. At 22, p=3900 and at 23, p=4100
