Question
The National Vaccine Information Center estimates that 90% of
Americans have had chickenpox by the time they reach adulthood. We now consider a random sample
of 120 American adults. We want to find out the probability that 110 or more people in this sample
have had chickenpox in their childhood
use normal approximation to approximate the probability that 110 or more people in this sample
have had chickenpox in their childhood. Do not use continuity correction.

- A dean in the business school claims that GMAT scores of applicants to the school's MBA program have increased during the past 5 years. Five years ago, the mean and standard deviation of GMAT scores of MBA applicants were 550 and 60, respectively. 30 applications for this year's program were randomly selected and the GMAT scores recorded. If we assume that the distribution of GMAT scores of this year's applicants is the same as that of 5 years ago, find the probability of erroneously concluding that there is not enough evidence to supports the claim when, in fact, the true mean GMAT score is 590.
