It is known that, in a certain area of a large city, the average number of rats per bungalow is five. Assuming that the number of rats follows Poisson distribution, find the probability that a randomly selected bungalow has more than 5 rats inclusive. Given e-5  = 0.0067.

उत्तर

Let X denote the number of rats per bungalow.

Given, m = 5 and e–5 = 0.0067

∴ X ~ P(m) ≡ X ~ P(5)

The p.m.f. of X is given by

P(X = x) = `("e"^-"m" "m"^x)/(x!)`

∴ P(X = x) = `("e"^-5*(5)^x)/(x!), x` = 0, 1, ..., 5

P(more than five rats)

= P(X > 5)

= 1 – P(X ≤ 5)

= 1 – P[X = 0 or X = 1 or X = 2 or X = 3 or X = 4 or X = 5]

= 1 – [P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P (X = 4) + P(X = 5)]

= `1 - [("e"^-5 (5)^0)/(0!) + ("e"^-5(5)^1)/(1!) + ("e"^-5 (5)^2)/(2!) + ("e"^-5 (5)^3)/(3!) + ("e"^-5 (5)^4)/(4!) + ("e"^-5(5)^5)/(5!)]`

= `1 - ["e"^-5 (5^0/(0!) + 5^1/(1!) + 5^2/(2!) + 5^3/(3!) + 5^4/(4!) + 5^5/(5!))]`

= `1 - ["e"^-5 (1/1 + 5/1 + 25/2 + 125/6 + 625/24 + 3125/120)]`

= 1 – [e–5 (1 + 5 + 12.5 + 20.83 + 26.04 + 26.04)]

= 1 – [0.0067 (91.417)]

= 1 – 0.6125

= 0.3875

State whether the following statement is True or False:

If X follows Poisson distribution such that P(X = 1) = 0.4 and P(X = 2) = 0.2, using the following activity find the value of m.

Solution: X : Follows Poisson distribution

∴ P(X) = `("e"^-"m" "m"^x)/(x!)`, P(X = 1) = 0.4 and P(X = 2) = 0.2

∴ P(X = 1) = `square` P(X = 2).

`("e"^-"m" "m"^x)/(1!) = square ("e"^-"m" "m"^2)/(2!)`,

`"e"^-"m" = square  "e"^-"m" "m"/2`, m ≠ 0

∴ m = `square`


State whether the following statement is true or false:

lf X ∼ P(m) with P(X = 1) = P(X = 2) then m = 1.


If X has Poisson distribution with parameter m and P(X = 2) = P(X = 3), then find P(X ≥ 2). Use e–3 = 0.0497.

P[X = x] = `square`

Since P[X = 2] = P[X = 3]

`square` = `square`

`m^2/2 = m^3/6` 

∴ m = `square`

Now, P[X ≥ 2] = 1 – P[x < 2]

= 1 – {P[X = 0] + P[X = 1]

= `1 - {square/(0!) + square/(1!)}`

= 1 – e–3[1 + 3]

= 1 – `square` = `square`


If X – P(m) with P(X = 1) = P(X = 2), then find the mean and P(X = 2) given that e–2 = 0.1353

Solution: Since P(X = 1) = P(X = 2)

`(e^-mm^1)/(1!) = square`

∴ m = `square`

∴ mean = `square` = `square`

Then P(X = 2) = `square` = `square`


In a town, 10 accidents take place in the span of 50 days. Assuming that the number of accidents follows Poisson distribution, find the probability that there will be 3 or more accidents on a day.

(Given that e-0.2 = 0.8187)


If X ∼ P(m) with P(X = 1) = P(X = 2), then find the mean and P(X = 2).

Given e–2 = 0.1353

Solution: Since P(X = 1) = P(X = 2)

∴ `("e"^square"m"^1)/(1!) = ("e"^"-m""m"^2)/square`

∴ m = `square`

∴ P(X = 2) = `("e"^-2. "m"^2)/(2!)` = `square`
