Question:
(a) Binomial probability distributions depend on the number of trials n of a binomial experiment and the probability of success p on each trial. Under what conditions is it appropriate to use a normal approximation to the binomial? (Select all that apply.)
nq > 10
np > 5
p > 0.5
np > 10
p < 0.5
nq > 5
(b) What is the probability of "12" or fewer successes for a binomial experiment with 20 trials. The probability of success on a single trial is 0.50. Use the normal approximation of the binomial distribution to answer this question. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Answer:
(a) The correct options are np > 5 and nq > 5
(b) P(x ≤ 12) = 0.8133

Change the function into vertex form:
f(x)=x²-10x+16
make a square by (adding half of -10)², which is 25, then subtract it:
f(x)=x²-10x+25-25+16
f(x)=(x-5)²-9
so the vertex is at (5,-9)
another way to do it:
f(x)=x²-10x+16
the vertex is when x=-
, b=-10, a=1 in this case.
x=-(-10/2*1)=5
plug x=5 into the quadratic function, you get f(x)=-9
f(x)=x²-10x+16
