Given avg of checks per year and x= at least 1 check per a day
Then find avg for a day as 197/365
Now we Use Poisson distribution
In a recent year, an author wrote 197 checks. Use the Poisson distribution to find the...
lif X 5.3.16-T son help In a recent year, an author wrote 182 checks. Use the Poisson distribution to find the probability that on a randomly selected day, he wrote at least one check The probability is (Round to three decanal places as needed)
Refer to the sample data for pre-employment drug screening shown below. If one of the subjects is randomly selected, what is the probability that the test result is a false positive? Who would suffer from a false positive result? Why? Positive test result Drug Use Is Indicated Negative test result Drug Use Is Not Indicated Subject Uses Drugs Subject Is Not a Drug User Pre-Employment Drug Screening Results The probability of a false positive test result is (Round to three...
Question Help Last year, a person wrote 127 checks. Let the random variable x represent the number of checks he wrote in one day, and assume that it has a Poisson distribution What is the mean number of checks written per day? What is the standard deviation? What is the variance? The mean number of checks written per day is I (Round to three decimal places as needed.) The standard deviation is (Round to three decimal places as needed) The...
Last year, a person wrote 115 checks. Let the random variable x represent the number of checks he wrote in one day, and assume that it has a Poisson distribution. What is the mean number of checks written per day? What is the standard deviation? What is the variance? (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Find the indicated probabilities using the geometric distribution, the Poisson distribution, or the binomial distribution. Then determine if the events are unusual. If convenient, use the appropriate probability table or technology to find the probabilities. The mean number of births per minute in a country in a recent year was about seven. Find the probability that the number of births in any given minute is (a) exactly five, (b) at least five, and (c) more than five. (a) P(exactly five)...

Question Help In a recent year, a hospital had 4145 births. Find the mean number of births per day, then use that result and the Poisson distribution to find the probability that in a day, there are 13 births. Does it appear likely that on any given day, there will be exactly 13 births? The mean number of births per day is (Round to one decimal place as needed.) The probability that, in a day, there are 13 births is...
