- Each day a hospital records the number of people who come to the emergency room for treatment. In the last week, the observation from Sunday to Saturday are 11, 8, 12, 14, 7, 39, 57. Would you expect the Poisson distribution to better describe, or more poorly describe, the number of weekly admissions to the hospital for a rare disease? Why?he Princeton Review, a company that tracks information about various colleges, reports that 30% of CofC students are out-of-state students. If we took many samples of CofC students, and for each sample calculate the proportion $\hat{p}$ of out-of-state students in that sample, what would be the center of this distribution?Question 3 What is the answer to part (iv) Flaws occur at random along the length of a thin copper wire. Assume that the number of flaws follow a Poisson distribution with a mean of 2.3 flaws per millimetre. (i) Determine the probability of exactly 3 flaws in 1 millimetre of wire. ii) Determine the probability of 10 flaws in 5 millimetres of wire. iii) Determine the probability of at least 2 flaws in 2 millimetres of wire. (iv) What is the expectation and standard deviation for the aforementioned distribution?
- The amount that households pay service providers for access to the Internet varies depending on the speed the household is looking for. It is determined the distribution is slightly skewed right with a mean monthly fee is $38 and a standard deviation of $10. Many households pay about $20 for limited broadband speed or about $40 for faster broadband speed, but some pay much more for lighting fast broadband speeds. a) Can you find the probability of a randomly selected household paying more than $40 for internet? Explain. b) AT&T has just released a new coverage area. AT&T hopes the new coverage area will help them increase their monthly profit by a minimum of $2000. What is the probability that the total amount of profit for 50 randomly selected households exceeds $2000?A merchant sells on the average 2.3 cakes on a round of his route. Cakes are packaged two to a box but are sold individually. At the end of the round, the salesman eats any cake left over in a box that has been opened. He only opens a box after emptying the previous box. If the number of cakes sold has a Poisson distribution, then on what proportion of rounds does he have a cake to eat? (4 decimal accuracy).The arrival rate of patients at a hospital counter follows Poisson distribution with a mean of 25 per hour. The service rate of the treatment to patients also follows Poisson distribution with a mean of 45 per hour.What is the probability of having 10 patients in the system (P 5 )?

- Snowflakes land randomly on a small area of the ground at a rate of 16 per minute on average. Let X be the number of snowflakes landing in the small area in 9 seconds. Evaluate the following, giving your answers correct to at least four decimal places. i. P(X=3) ii. P(X=3|X22) True Or False Cor(X,X)=Var(X) Cor(X,Y)=0 implies that X and Y are independent.Question 4 a) For a large group of sale prospects, it has been observed that 22 percent of those contacted personally by a sales representative will make a purchase. If a sales representative contacts 35 prospects: i) Determine the probability that 10 or more will make a purchase (include also correction of continuity). ii) Determine the probability that not more than 3 will make a purchase (include also correction of continuity). iii) In what condition does binomial distribution approximate to normal distribution?Question 4 a) For a large group of sale prospects, it has been observed that 22 percent of those contacted personally by a sales representative will make a purchase.
