What type of distribution is the Poisson distribution?
Think about the outcomes it models.
Is the Normal distribution a discrete or continuous distribution?
Consider its graphical representation.
What is the type of the Poisson distribution?
Reflect on the outcomes it models.
True or False: The Binomial distribution can produce values that exceed its maximum number of trials.
Think about the allowed outcomes.
Discuss the scenarios in which the Poisson distribution is preferable over the Normal distribution for modeling.
Think of the nature of events.
Given a factory produces 3 defective items per 100 produced, find the probability there are 2 defects in a batch of 200 using the Binomial approximation.
Calculate the mean defects, then apply Poisson formula.
