Question: Suppose that a basketball player can score on a particular shot with probability .3. Use the central limit theorem to find the approximate distribution of S, the number of successes out of 25 independent shots. Find the approximate probabilities that S is less than or equal to 5, 7, 9, and 11 and compare these to the exact probabilities.
