Sample: the first question, solved

Claims are normally distributed, μ=$5000, σ=$1200. Find P(claim exceeds $7000).

📘 Worked solution
z≈1.667. P≈0.0475.

And one from the hard end

Explain why we can use the normal distribution to approximate P(X≥60) for a binomial variable with n=200, p=0.25, rather than summing many binomial terms directly.
