Sample Response: Yes, the product can be rational. The best example for this to happen is if you take the square root of a non-perfect square and square it, or multiply it by itself. This “undoes” the squaring, so you get a whole number, e.g. √5x√5 = 5.

Answer:

Yes, the product can be clear and sensible. The best example for this to happen is if you take the square root of a non-perfect square and square it, or multiply it by itself. This "undoes" the squaring, so you get a whole number, e.g. √5x√5 = 5.

The absolute change is the difference: 6.88 - 7.25 = -0.37

The rate of change is that divided by the originalprice x 100

Ratre of change: (-0.37/7.25 )*100 = -4.93%

Why is it necessary to check that n modifyingabove p with caret greater than or equals 5np≥5 and n modifyingabove q with caret g

Nookie1986 [14]

Both of these conditions must be true in order for the assumption that the binomial distribution is approximately normal. In other words, if $np \ge 5$ and $nq \ge 5$ then we can use a normal distribution to get a good estimate of the binomial distribution. If either np or nq is smaller than 5, then a normal distribution wouldn't be a good model to use.
