Lecture 7(March 25,2015). Chapter 3, Section 3.6, Homework and question time. Section 3.6 The Poisson Distribution Examples of Posisson distribution: Let X be the number of phone calls received by a call center in an minute. Heople tmd that 尸(X = k) =(R = U, 1,2,...). The number of taxis passing a particular street corner in an hour. 产(X = k) =(k = 0,1,2,... Definition: A random variable (RV) X is said to have a Poisson distribution if there is a constant 1 0 such that(0.1)p(x = k) =— k = 0,. K! Exercise: Compute the expectation and variance of X Example 1. See page 134 Example 3.38: X: numb
