For the Poisson distribution ______


State whether the following statement is True or False:  

A discrete random variable X is said to follow the Poisson distribution with parameter m ≥ 0 if its p.m.f. is given by P(X = x) = `("e"^(-"m")"m"^"x")/"x"`, x = 0, 1, 2, .....


State whether the following statement is True or False:

If n is very large and p is very small then X follows Poisson distribution with n = mp


If X follows Poisson distribution such that P(X = 1) = 0.4 and P(X = 2) = 0.2, using the following activity find the value of m.

Solution: X : Follows Poisson distribution

∴ P(X) = `("e"^-"m" "m"^x)/(x!)`, P(X = 1) = 0.4 and P(X = 2) = 0.2

∴ P(X = 1) = `square` P(X = 2).

`("e"^-"m" "m"^x)/(1!) = square ("e"^-"m" "m"^2)/(2!)`,

`"e"^-"m" = square  "e"^-"m" "m"/2`, m ≠ 0

∴ m = `square`


In a town, 10 accidents take place in the span of 50 days. Assuming that the number of accidents follows Poisson distribution, find the probability that there will be 3 or more accidents on a day.

(Given that e-0.2 = 0.8187)

Solution:

Here, m = `square` and X − P(m) with parameter m.

The p.m.f. X is:

P(X = x) = `(e^(−m).m^x)/(x!), x = 0, 1, 2,...`

P(X ≥ 3) = 1 − P(X < 3)

= 1 − [`square + square + square`]

= `1 − [(e^(− 0.2)(0.2)^0)/(0!) + (e^(−0.2)(0.2)^1)/(1!) + (e^(−0.2)(0.2)^2)/(2!)]`

= 1 − [0.8187(1 + 0.2 + 0.02)]

= 1 − `square`

= `square`
