Assume that the number of X, that a baseball team makes in a nine inning
game has a Poisson distribution. If the probability that a team makes zero
hits is 1/3.
what is the chance that the team has to wait more than an hour to have the first hit?
Solution
A discrete random variable X is said to have a Poisson distribution with parameter ? > 0, if, for k = 0, 1, 2,
