Basic Math

Here is a simple probability model for multiple-choice tests.Suppose that each student has probability p of correctly answeringa question chosen at random from a universe of possible questions.(A strong student has a higher p than a weak student.) Thecorrectness of answers to different questions are independent. Jodiis a good student for whom p = 0.8.

(a) Use the Normal approximation to find the probability thatJodi scores 74% or lower on a 100-question test. (Round your answerto four decimal places.)

(b) If the test contains 250 questions, what is the probabilitythat Jodi will score 74% or lower? (Use the normal approximation.Round your answer to four decimal places.)
