Question

Please answer all parts of the question, with all work shown

This problem concerns the normal approximation to the binomial. The "continuity correction" (sometimes called Yates's Continuity Correction) is a technique

(a) Suppose of all the kids that show up on Halloween night, 58% are dressed in Deadpool costumes. If 60 kids show up, what is the probability that between 33 and 38 (inclusive) kids will be dressed in Deadpool costumes? (Use the binomial.)

(b) Repeat the previous question, but using the normal approximation to the binomial, without using the continuity correction.

(c) Repeat the previous question, but now using the continuity correction.
