Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) (iv)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The statement that the probability ' \(p\) ' of success in each trial is very large. This is not suitable for using poisson distribution because the poisson distribution assumes rare events with small probabilities. ' \(p\) ' is very large, the binomial distribution is more…
