Approximate Binomial Probabilities Using the Normal Distribution
-Assuming that all conditions are met to approximate a binomial probability distribution with the standard normal distribution, then to compute $P ( x \leq 23 )$ from the binomial distribution we must compute _____as the normal approximation.

• A) \(\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { x } \leq 23.5 )\)
• B) \(\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { x } \geq 23.5 )\)
• C) \(\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { x } \leq 22.9 )\)
• D) \(\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { x } \leq 23.1 )\)
