Using the Central Limit Theorem · Exercise 35
Four friends, Janice, Barbara, Kathy and Roberta, decided to carpool together to get to school. Each day the driver would be chosen by randomly selecting one of the four names. They carpool to school for 96 days. Use the normal approximation to the binomial to calculate the following probabilities. Round the standard deviation to four decimal places.
(a) Find the probability that Janice is the driver at most 20 days.
(b) Find the probability that Roberta is the driver more than 16 days.
(c) Find the probability that Barbara drives exactly 24 of those 96 days.
