One airline averages about 1.5 fatalities per month. Assume that X, the number of fatalities per month, has the Poisson probability distribution.

What is the probability that in a month the airlines will have no fatality? i.e. P(X = 0). [Round to 4 decimal places]

Tries 0/5

What is the probability that in a month the airlines will have less than average fatality? i.e. P(X < μX), where μX is the expected value of the given Poisson distribution. [Round to 4 decimal places]

Let X be the number of cars per minute passing a certain point of some road between 8 A.M. and 10 A.M. on a Sunday. Assume that X has a Poisson distribution with mean 5. Find the probability of observing 4 or fewer cars during any given minute. Why do I have to use P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3) + P(X=4) instead of 1-P(X=5) for the solution?

Let x be a random variable that represents white blood cell count per cubic milliliter of whole blood. Assume that x has a distribution that is approximately normal, with mean μ = 6000 and estimated standard deviation σ = 2150. A test result of x < 3500 is an indication of leukopenia. This indicates bone marrow depression that may be the result of a viral infection. (a) What is the probability that, on a single test, x is less than...
