Thread: stats homework poisson and normal distribution

hey Im stuck on this question that my teacher set for homework. Its on the poisson and normal distribution. would be grateful for any help

question : given that X~Po(50) and P(X>x)< 0.05, use normal approximation with continuity correction to find minimum intergral value of x


thankyou

The distribution of is approximately (that is normal with mean and variance ).



Where is the cumulative standard normal
