Solution
Binomial Distribution
PMF of B.D is = f ( k ) = ( n k ) p^k * ( 1- p) ^ n-k
 Where   
 k = number of successes in trials
 n = is the number of independent trials
 p = probability of success on each trial
Mean = np
 Variance = npq
Possion Distribution
 PMF of P.D is = f ( k ) = e- x / x!
 Where   
  = parameter of the distribution.
 x = is the number of independent trials
Mean = Variance =
