A person arrives at the side of a single lane, one way street as a car passes by. Consider this time as time 0. There is no traffic lights and no pedestrian lanes in the nearby area. He stands there watching cars pass by. The number of cars to pass by within a period of time cane be modeled using a poison distribution. Suppose the cars pass by the person at a rate of 4.5 cars per minute. Assume that the cars pass by instantaneously. what is the probability that no cars pass by him within a 2 minute window b) if the person had to guess how many cars would pass by in the next five minutes, what number should he guess? Why? c) what is the distribution for the time until the first car passes by him(time is continuous). What is the expected time until the first car passes by him?
