P(x>14) Let a binomial random variable be denoted by x The probability that there are more than 14 successes of the event is denoted by P(x>14) The possible discrete midpoint values for the given binomial distribution range from: 15, 16, 17, ,n2, n1, n. In order to convert these values to a continuous interval, we have to do a continuity correction and move 0.5 unit to either side of the discrete midpoint value to include all possible x values. Thus, the corresponding interval for the continuous normal distribution is x>14.5/P(x>14.5)
