n = 80
p = 0.65
q = 0.35

M = np = 80(0.65) = 52

SD = = = = 4.266

"At most 47" means 47 or fewer.

P(x <= 47) ---> P(x < 47.5)

z = = = = -1.05

Look up -1.05 on a z-table. The result is 0.1469. So, there is a 0.1469 chance that at most 47 companies have growth in sales revenue within one week of the first appearance of the advertisement.
