(a) Using normal distribution to approximate binomial distribution

E(X) = 100 * 0.9 = 90

Var(X) = 100 * 0.9 * 0.1 = 9

So, P(between 84 and 95 inclusive survive)

= P(83.5 <= X <= 95.5) (notice correction factor)

= P[(83.5 - 90)/3 <= Z <= (95.5 - 90)/3]

P(-2.1667 <= Z <= 1.8333)

= 0.9514

(b) P(fewer than 86 survive)

P(X < 85.5)

= P[Z < (85.5 - 90)/3]

= P(Z < -1.5)

= 0.0668
