Algebra.Com's Answer #799537 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! this is likely a Poisson distribution with parameter proportion to time, discrete variable, and theoretically infinite numbers. \n" ); document.write( "p(3)=e^(-2)*2^3/3!=0.1804 \n" ); document.write( "- \n" ); document.write( "this is 1- probability (0,1,2) \n" ); document.write( "prob of 0 is e^(-2)=0.1353 \n" ); document.write( "p(1) is e^(-2)*2^1/1=0.2707 \n" ); document.write( "p(2)=e^(-2)*2^2/2!=0.2707 \n" ); document.write( "That probability sum is 0.6767 \n" ); document.write( "the answer of p(>2) is 0.3233 \n" ); document.write( "also on calculator 1-poissoncdf(2,2) for the left side of the distribution. \n" ); document.write( " |
