Suppose that in a week the number of accidents at a certain crossing has a Poisson distribution with an average of 0.6 a) What is the probability that there are at least 3 accidents at the crossing for two weeks? b) What is the probability that the time between an accident and the next one is longer than 2 weeks?
The number of Emergency Room visits has increased over the past several years in the United...
The number of Emergency Room visits has increased over the past several years in the United States. One possible reason for this increase may be that people tend to postpone routine health care. This could result in more visits to the Emergency Room. Of all patients who visit an Emergency Room, suppose 22% are seen in less than 15 minutes, 13% are admitted to the hospital, and 5% are seen in less than 15 minutes AND admitted to the hospital....

The number of defaults in one year within a certain portfolio of bonds is found to be a Poisson random variable with parameter λ = 7 (i.e., the portfolio has an expectation of 7 defaults per year). (a) Find the probability that the bond portfolio will have fewer than 3 defaults during the upcoming year. (b) Describe the distribution of the continuous random variable representing the time between successive defaults. (c) Find the expected time between successive defaults. (d) Calculate...

In a certain population an average of 11 new cases of esophageal cancer are diagnosed each year. If the annual incidence of esophageal cancer follows a Poisson distribution, find the probability that in a given year the number of newly diagnosed cases of esophageal cancer will be at least 2.
