Question 1034165: Suppose there is an average of 2 suicides per year per 50 000 population. In a city of 100 000 people, find the probability that:
(a)not less that 3 suicides in two years.0 suicide per year.
(b)0 suicide per year. Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The r.v. X = # of suicides in a year, follows the Poisson distribution, with pmf , and .
(a) , to three significant figures.
(b) , to four significant figures.
