A certain flight arrives on time 87 percent of the time. Suppose 180 flights are randomly selected. Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate the probability that (a) exactly 167 flights are on time. (b) at least 167 flights are on time. (c) fewer than 154 flights are on time. (d) between 154 and 167, inclusive are on time.
