In a large high school of 2500 students, 21% of them are seniors. A simple random sample of 150 students is taken and the proportion of seniors is calculated. What are the mean and standard deviation of the sample proportion? Can we use this to calculate probabilities? (That is does it meet the assumptions of the Central Limit Theorem?) What is the probability that the sample will contain less than 15% seniors? Insert the graph from Rguroo that gives the output for this question.
Customers arrive at a shop according to a Poisson process at a mean rate of 2 customers every ten minutes. The shop opens at 9am. (c) Let Y be the time (in hours) until the 4th customer arrives at the shop. State the distribution of Y and give the value(s) of its parameter(s). (d) Show that the probability of the time until the 4th customer arrives being greater than 15 minutes is 13e-3. (e) Let M be the number of customers who arrive at the shop between 9am and 12 noon.

Assume that arrivals of cars at a gas station can be modeled by a Poisson process with rate 2 cars per hour. What is the probability that one has to wait at least 3 hours for the arrival of 3 cars?
In the first hour of customers using the app they served 180 customers. STACO decided to treat this hour as 60 non-overlapping intervals of one minute each. They then assumed they could model the number of customers served each minute by independent and identically distributed Poisson Random Variables. They called the number of customers served in the ith minute X₁, so X₁ + X₂ + ... + X60 180, X₁~ Poisson(X), and X; and X, are independent if i j. - STACO used this to compute an estimated 95% confidence interval and then told Coffee Kart that they could claim to serve an average of three customers per minute. = i Recall that the maximum likelihood estimator of A is A X. Using the same assumptions as STACO and assuming that n is large enough to apply the Central Limit Theorem, calculate an estimated 95% confidence interval for X. ii Do you agree with the assumptions made by STACO. Justify your answer.
