2. Traffic accidents at a particular intersection follow a Poisson distribution with an average rate of 1.4 accidents per week. (Hint: Let X represent "the number of days before the next accident occur" X follows what kind of distribution? You should not expect to use this[r.v. for all the parts below) a) What is the probability that the next accident will not occur for three days? b) What is the probability that the next accident will happen within the next day?
Suppose people immigrate into a territory at a Poisson rate of 2 per day. Assume that 40% of immigrants are adults and 60% are kids. a. What is the probability that 4 adult immigrants arrive in the next 3 days? b. What is the probability that the time elapsed between the arrival of 24th and the 25th kids is more than 2 days? c. Find mean and the variance of the time needed to have 50 adult immigrants in the territory.
Let X denote the waiting time (in minutes) for a customer. An assistant manager claims that μ, the average waiting time of the entire population of customers, is 2 minutes with standard deviation also 2 minutes. The manager doesn't believe his assistant's claim, so he observes a random sample of 36 custoers. The average waiting time for the 36 customers is 3.2 minutes. What is the probability that the average of 36 customers is 3.2 minutes or more? Do you think that assistant manager's claim that the mean is 2 minutes is correct?
