The occurrence of traffic accidents at an intersection may be modeled as a Poisson process. Based on historical records the average rate of accidents is once every 6 years. Part 1 What is the probability that there will be no accidents at the intersection for a period of 3 years? (Answer correct to 3 decimal places.) number (rtol=0.001, atol=D0.001) Part 2 Suppose that in every accident at the intersection, there is a 5% probability of fatality. Based on the above Poisson model what is the probability of one traffic fatality at this intersection in a period of 3 years? (Answer correct to 3 decimal places.) Hint: Note that here you need to find the mean rate of fatalities per year, first. number (rtol=0.001, atol=D0.001)
