A very large gardening business grows rose bushes for sale to garden stores around the world. The most popular colors are red, pink, and white. The business decides on 50% red roses, 30% pink, and 20% white. A gardener orders 10 rose bushes selected randomly from a huge field. Her primary interest is in pink roses. A good model for the number of bushes with pink roses is given by the binomial distribution. Probability calculations are quicker when using the Normal approximation to the binomial distribution. Which of the following is false a. The approximation requires np 10 and n(1 â p) 10.
b. The sample size here is too small to use the Normal approximation to the binomial.
c. The approximation requires np 30.
d. The Normal approximation works better if the success probability p is close to p = 0.5.

Complete options are;

a. The approximation requires np > 10 and n(1 - p) > 10.

b. The sample size here is too small to use the Normal approximation to the binomial.

c. The approximation requires np > 30.

d. The Normal approximation works better if the success probability p is close to p = 0.5.

Option C is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the options,

In normal approximation to the binomial,

n is the sample size,

p is the given probability.

q = 1 - p

Now, one of the conditions for using normal approximation to the binomial is that; np and nq or n(1 - p) must be greater than 10.

This means that option A is true because we require np or n(1 - p) to be greater than 10.

From Central limit theorem, the sample size needs to be more than 30 for us to use normal approximation. Our sample is 10. Thus, option B is true.

The approximation doesn't require np > 30. Rather it's the sample size that needs to be more than 30. Thus, option C is false.

Generally, when the value of p in a binomial is close to 0.5, the normal approximations will work better than when the value of p is closer to either 0 or 1. The reason is that: for p = 0.5, the binomial distribution will be symmetrical. Thus, option D is correct.

the discriminant is 64 + 4*1*12 = 112

this is prime.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is d
