You can put this solution on YOUR website! A company is studying the number of daily debit card purchases. If there were 20 purchases and the probability of a debit card purchase is 0.5.
a. what is the standard deviation of the number of debit card purchases
Ans: sqrt(npq) = sqrt(20*1/2*1/2) = sqrt(5)
----------------------------------------------
b. based on the shape of the distribution approx 99.7% should be between__and __
mean = np = 10
---
m-3std = 10-3sqrt(5) is approx 3.29
---
m+3std = 10+3sqrt(5) is approx 16.7
