Distribution of Poisson Instructions: Please present the processes necessary to support the answer to the exercises and round the final results — not the intermediate values that appear during the calculations — to two decimal places, when necessary. 1. Explain when the Poisson probability distribution is used. 2. Consider a Poisson random variable with u = 3.5. Use the Poisson formula to calculate the...

Intensive care unit (ICUS) generally treat the sidest patients in a hospital ICUs are often the most expensive department in a hospital because of the specialized equipment and extensive training required to be an ICU doctor or nurse. Therefore, it is important to use ICUs as efficiently as possible in a hospital Suppose that a large-scale study of elderly ICU patients shows that the average length of stay in the ICU is 3.5 days. Assume that this length of stay...

As a hospital administrator responsible for staffing, I need to schedule the appropriate hospital staff members in key areas in order to provide proper care. In a recent year, my hospital had 4,320 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? If it is...
