\n" ); document.write( "Note: We can use the normal distribution as a close approximation to the

\n" ); document.write( " \"125%2A.04+=+5\" and \"125%2A.96+=+120\"
\n" ); document.write( "Yes, the normal distribution would provide a reasonable approximation to the binomial distribution \n" ); document.write( "
