A) The area to the left of 35
B) The area to the left of 35.5
C) The area to the right of 35.5
D) The area to the left of 34.5

When using the continuity correction for a discrete variable (like the number of defective CDs), you adjust the boundary by 0.5 to account for the discrete nature. For "no more than 35," you would look at the area to the left of 35.5.
