Problem 3. (5 points) One hundred year floods are floods of such a size as to happen only once every hundred years on average. Assume the number of such floods occurring in a given time period has a Poisson distribution. Find the probability that 2 or more hundred year floods will occur in a given 150 year time period.

A system (e.g. a dam or a dike) is said to be designed for the N-year flood if it has a capacity which will be exceeded by a flood equal or greater that the N-year flood. The magnitude of the N-year flood. The magnitude of the N-year flood is that which is exceeded with probability 1/N in any given year. Assume that successive annual floods are independent. a)- What is...

An airline finds that with probability 0.04 every passenger that makes a reservation on a particular flight will not show up. Consequently, their policy is to sell 200 reserved seats on a plane that has only 196 seats. (a) Find the probability that every person who shows up for the flight will find a seat available. (b) Use the Poisson approximation to compute this probability and compare your answer to the exact answer that you found in part (a).

TO Complete any particular activity once it has been started has
a beta distribution with A= the optimistic time( if everything goes
well) and B = the pessimistic time( if everything goes badly).
Suppose that in constructing a single-family house, the time(x in
