Use the normal approximation to find the indicated probability. The sample size is n, the population proportion of successes is p, and X is the number of successes in the sample. n = 83, p = 0.35: P(X ≤ 27)

The following histograms each illustrate a sample. Which sample can be treated as approximately normal?

A researcher wants to construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of elementary school students in Seward County who receive free or reduced-price school lunches. What sample size is needed so that the confidence interval will have a margin of error of 0.07?

Six measurements were made of the magnesium ion concentration (in parts per million, or ppm) in a city’s municipal water supply, with the following results. It is reasonable to assume that the population is approximately normal. Based on a 98% confidence interval for the mean magnesium ion concentration, is it reasonable to believe that the mean magnesium ion concentration may be greater than 195? (Hint: you should first calculate the 98% confidence interval for the mean magnesium ion concentration.)
