Question 6: Let S be a binomial random variable counting the number of successes in n trials with probability of success p. You know from your studies in this course that this binomial distribution for S can be approximated by a continuous normal distribution. Why? Explain how this occurs using the concepts and terminology of this course. Your explanation should involve both convergence in probability and convergence in distribution.
