Read the notes on using the normal distribution as an approximation to the Poisson distribution page 79-80 (or watch this video)
Then complete:
Ex 3B page 81-83
Q5, 7, 11
Last time we did this excercise, we all noticed a few discrepancies in the probabilities given in the answers, so please make sure you are close to the answer in the back.
This website shows you graphically why the normal makes a good approximation to both Poisson and binomial.
