the average number of field mice per acre in a 5 acre wheat field is estimated to 10 .
\n" ); document.write( "find the probability that a given acre contain more than 15 mice
\n" ); document.write( "P(x > 15) = 1 - P(x ≤ 14).
\n" ); document.write( "Using Poisson Distribution:
\n" ); document.write( "mean = 10 (10 per acre average)
\n" ); document.write( "P(x > 15) = 1 - poissioncdf(mean, largest x-value).
\n" ); document.write( "P(x > 15) = 1 - poissioncdf(10,14) = 1- 0.9165 = .0835
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
