  1. Do not ping the Moderators, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  2. Do not ping the Helper Moderators, unless there is a conflict between helpers.
  3. Do not ping other members randomly for help.
  4. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  5. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  6. If the Helper has answered your question, remember to thank them with the Mathematics Ranks bot and close the thread with:

Also I believe by 500 stakes produced it means that 500 stakes are not rejected

#

The reason you need to multiply 0.09121 by the whole population of stakes is because if it was just non rejected stakes then the standard deviation and mean would be different

#

And hence the probability wouldn't be 0.09121
