Question 909207: The number of tornados striking Sunnyvale Trailer Park during a single year can be described using a Poisson random distribution with a mean of 1.2.
a) What is the probability of zero tornados striking the park in a given year?
b) What is the probability that more than two tornados will strike the park in a given year?
c) What is the most likely number of tornados in a given year? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Poison Distribution: avg = 1.2/yr
a) P = poissonpdf(1.2,0)
b) P( > 2) = 1 - poissoncdf(1.2,2)
c) 1.2/yr
