उत्तर

Let X denote the number of rats per bungalow.

Given, m = 5 and e–5 = 0.0067

∴ X ~ P(m) ≡ X ~ P(5)

The p.m.f. of X is given by

P(X = x) = `("e"^-"m" "m"^x)/(x!)`

∴ P(X = x) = `("e"^-5*(5)^x)/(x!), x` = 0, 1, ..., 5

P(more than five rats)

= P(X > 5)

= 1 – P(X ≤ 5)

= 1 – P[X = 0 or X = 1 or X = 2 or X = 3 or X = 4 or X = 5]

= 1 – [P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P (X = 4) + P(X = 5)]

= `1 - [("e"^-5 (5)^0)/(0!) + ("e"^-5(5)^1)/(1!) + ("e"^-5 (5)^2)/(2!) + ("e"^-5 (5)^3)/(3!) + ("e"^-5 (5)^4)/(4!) + ("e"^-5(5)^5)/(5!)]`

= `1 - ["e"^-5 (5^0/(0!) + 5^1/(1!) + 5^2/(2!) + 5^3/(3!) + 5^4/(4!) + 5^5/(5!))]`

= `1 - ["e"^-5 (1/1 + 5/1 + 25/2 + 125/6 + 625/24 + 3125/120)]`

= 1 – [e–5 (1 + 5 + 12.5 + 20.83 + 26.04 + 26.04)]

= 1 – [0.0067 (91.417)]

= 1 – 0.6125

= 0.3875

X : is number obtained on upper most face when a fair die is thrown then E(X) = ______


The expected value of the sum of two numbers obtained when two fair dice are rolled is ______.


Choose the correct alternative:

A distance random variable X is said to have the Poisson distribution with parameter m if its p.m.f. is given by P(x) = `("e"^(-"m")"m"^"x")/("x"!)` the condition for m is ______


State whether the following statement is True or False:

X is the number obtained on upper most face when a die is thrown, then E(x) = 3.5


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:

lf X ∼ P(m) with P(X = 1) = P(X = 2) then m = 1.


If X – P(m) with P(X = 1) = P(X = 2), then find the mean and P(X = 2) given that e–2 = 0.1353

Solution: Since P(X = 1) = P(X = 2)

`(e^-mm^1)/(1!) = square`

∴ m = `square`

∴ mean = `square` = `square`

Then P(X = 2) = `square` = `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)


If X ∼ P(m) with P(X = 1) = P(X = 2), then find the mean and P(X = 2).

Given e–2 = 0.1353

Solution: Since P(X = 1) = P(X = 2)

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

∴ m = `square`

∴ P(X = 2) = `("e"^-2. "m"^2)/(2!)` = `square`
