Discrete Probability Variables
Poisson Probability Distribution
The Poisson Distribution is a discrete probability distribution where the number of occurrences in one interval (time or area) is independent of the number of occurrences in other intervals.
Introduce the City and State. Let us know a fun fact!
Tell us the average number of days of precipitation in that city for the month of April.
What is the probability of having exactly 10 days of precipitation in the month of April?
What is the probability of having less than three days of precipitation in the month of April?
What is the probability of having more than 15 days of precipitation in the month of April?
Analysis
Write a sentence for each of the probabilities explaining what those probabilities mean in context of days of precipitation in your chosen city.
Would any of the situations be considered unusual? Why or Why Not?
After reviewing the post of a peer, are you surprised by the probabilities? Why or why not?
Compare and contrast the probabilities of one post to the city that you analyzed. Why do you think the probabilities differ greatly or are so similar?
