In studies for a medication, 6 percent of patients gained weight as a side effect. Suppose 681 patients are randomly selected Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate the probability that (a) exactly 41 patients will gain weight as a side effect (b) no more than 41 patients will gain weight as a side effect (c) at least 55 patients will gain weight as a side effect. What does this result suggest? (2) P(41) = || (Round to four decimal places as needed) (b) P(X <41)=(Round to four decimal places as needed) (c) P(X 255) = (Round to four decimal places as needed) Since 55 is W than 6% of the patients, this suggests that the proportion of patients that gain weight as a side effect is 0.06
