a ) Let , H be the number of hits the batter gets in 4 bats
Here , H has Poisson distribution with paramater m=0.300
Therefore , the pmf of H is ,

A baseball player has a lifetime batting average of 0.303. If, in a season, this player has 220 "at bats", what is the probability he gets 85 or more hits? Probability of 85 or more hits =
Option #1: Batting The batting average of a baseball player is the number of “hits” divided by the number of “at-bats.” Recently, a certain major league player’s at-bats and corresponding hits were recorded for 200 consecutive games. The consecutive games span more than one season. Since each game is different, the number of at-bats and hits both vary. For this particular player, there were from zero to five at-bats. Thus, one can sort the 200 games into six categories: 0...

A high school baseball player has a 0.285 batting average. In one game, he gets 5 at bats. What is the probability he will get at least 3 hits in the game?
A high school baseball player has a 0.201 batting average. In one game, he gets 9 at bats. What is the probability he will get at least 6 hits in the game?
A high school baseball player has a 0.168 batting average. In one game, he gets 8 at bats. What is the probability he will get at least 2 hits in the game?
A high school baseball player has a 0.278 batting average. In one game, he gets 7 at bats. What is the probability he will get at least 2 hits in the game? (Round answer to 3 decimal places) A certain kind of sheet metal has, on average, 8 defects per 15 square feet. Assuming a Poisson distribution, find the probability that a 19 square foot metal sheet has at least 9 defects. Round your answer to three decimal places.
A professional baseball player claims he can get a hit 30% of the time based on batting average. During the next 10 games he had 38 at bats and only got 7 hits. Test the claim that the player gets a hit 30% of his at-bats with a significant level of 0.05 6. A professional baseball player claims he can get a hit 30% of the time based on his batting average However, during the next 10 games he had...
A baseball player, Mickey, who bats 310 (or .310) gets an average of 3.1 hits in ten at bats. We will assume that each time Mickey bats he has a 0.31 probability of getting a hit. This means Mickeys at bats are independent from one another. If we also assume Mickey bats 5 times during a game and that x= the number of hits that Mickey gets then the following probability mass function, p(x), and cumulative distribution function F(x) are...
Please use the central limit theorem. 9.14 A baseball player has a batting average of 0.328. Let X be the number of hits the player gets during 20 times at bat. Use the central limit theorem to find the approximate probability P(X<k) for k = 1, 3, 6. Compare with the exact probability for each k. Problem 9.14. The problem assumes that the batter's probability of getting a hit stays constant at p=0.328 while he comes up to bat 20...
