Question 992099: Traffic flow is traditionally modelled as a Poisson distribution. A traffic engineer monitors the traffic flowing through an intersection with an average of 6 cars per minute. To set the timing of a traffic signal the following probabilities are used.
Calculate the minimum number of cars through the intersection so that the probability of this number or fewer cars in 30 seconds is at least 90%

Posting the same question multiple times just clogs up the system and wastes everyone's time. And you run the risk of not getting your question answered at all. Despite what you may think, your questions are not more important than anyone else's.
