Question 729132: A binomial distribution has 100 trials (n = 100) with a probability of success of 0.25 (π=0.25). We would like to find the probability of 75 or more successes using the normal distribution to approximate the binomial. Applying the continuity correction factor, what value would be used to calculate a z-score?




74.5




75




75.5




25
