1.The number of accidents that occur at a busy intersection is Poisson distributed with a mean of 3.7 per week. Find the probability of 10 or more accidents occur in a week?
2.The probability distribution for the number of goals scored per match by the soccer team Melchester Rovers is believed to follow a Poisson distribution with mean 0.80. Independently, the number of goals scored by the Rochester Rockets is believed to follow a Poisson distribution with mean 1.60. You are planning on placing a bet on the total number of goals scored by the two teams in their next games. What is the probability (to two decimal places) that the total number of goals is 5?

The number of accidents per week at a busy intersection was recorded for a year. There were 19 weeks with no accidents, 17 weeks with one accident, 9 weeks with two accidents, and 7 weeks with three accidents. A week is to be selected at random and the number of accidents noted. Let X be the outcome. Then X is a random variable taking on the values 0, 1, 2, and 3. (a) Write out a probability table for X...

Suppose traffic accidents at a road intersection occur once every 7 days. It can be assumed there is no more than 1 accident occurring at this intersection simultaneously, and at this intersection accidents can occur at any time. Also, an accident is not due to other accidents. (What type of distribution is this i.e. Gaussian, Poisson, etc.?) What is the probability that there are 3 accidents during the next 15 days at the intersection? Calculate by hand. What is the...
