This is not the correct question, the correct question is;

Assume that the probability of the binomial random variable will be approximated using the normal distribution. Describe the area under the normal curve that will be computed. Find the probability that at least 35 households have a gas stove.

Answer: p ( x > 34.5 ) The area to the right of 34.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, x = 35

when using normal approximation

Using continuity correction

so

p ( x ≥ 35 ) = p ( x > 34.5 )

More than means the area is towards the right.

Therefore, the area under the normal curve is,

p ( x > 34.5 ) The area to the right of 34.5
