use a normal approximation to find the probability of the indicated scores, assume that n=100 and p=0.22
\n" ); document.write( "probability that x is at least 25
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "mean = n*p = 22
\n" ); document.write( "std = sqrt(22*0.78) = 4.14
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "P(x >= 25) ~ P(x >= 24.5)
\n" ); document.write( "z(24.5) = (24.5-22)/4.14 = 0.60
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "p(x >= 25) = P(z >= 0.6) = normalcdf(0.6,100) = 0.2743
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "probability that x is exactly 19
\n" ); document.write( "P(x = 19) ~ P(18.5 <= x <= 19.5)
\n" ); document.write( "z(18.5) = (18.5-22)/4.14 = -0.85
\n" ); document.write( "z(19.5) = (19.5-22)/4.14 = 0.60
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "P(x = 19) ~ P(-0.85<= z <= 0.6) = normalcdf(-0.85,0.6) = 0.5281
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
