Write short notes on the following types of probability distributions:

Poisson probability distribution: it is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. It is a discrete function by which variable can take only a specified value in a list Examples include number of mosquito bite on person, number of computer crashes in a day etc.
Uniform probability distribution: it is also known as Continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution. It is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
Exponential probability distribution: it is a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process.

λ= mean
ii. Uniform Probability Distribution
This is a continuous distribution in which events from random experiments have same and equal probability. It is a distribution with likely equally outcomes.
Formula:
P(X=x)= 1/b–a

1a.poisson probability distribution is a type of discrete probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specific period. It’s often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It’s also used in testing how unusual an event frequency is for a given interval. It’s extremely helpful for planning purposes as it enables managers to analyze customer behaviour as they visit a restaurant or store. Where we are going to use √ as our lamba
The formula is P(X=x)=e^-√×√^x÷x!

√=expected number of events (which is used here as lamba)
e=base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828……)
Mean E(x)=√
Variance =√

B. Uniform probability distribution is a type of continuous probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. It’s sometimes also known as a rectangular distribution, is a distribution that has a constant probability. It’s used in situations in which every outcome in a sample space is equally likely
The formula = X~U(a,b)
a=lowest value of x
b= highest value of x
C. Exponential probability distribution: this is a type of continuous probability distribution which is probability of time between events in a poisson point process i.e a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It’s present when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing early on for example: news, blog

POISSON DISTRIBUTION: This is used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. An area of opportunity is a continuous unit or interval of time, volume or such area in which more than one occurrence of an event can occur. Here there can be unlimited number of possible outcomes unlike in Binomial Distribution where we have only two possible outcomes.

UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION: It’s a term used to describe a form of probability distribution where every possible outcomes has an equal likelihood of happening, The probability is constant since each variable has equal chances of being the outcome.

EXPONENTIAL DISTRIBUTION: it is a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process.

A. POISSON PROBABILTY DISTRIBUTION
This is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. It is known as a count distribution. It gives us the probability of a given number of events happening in a fixed interval of time. Here, there can be unlimited number of possible outcomes unlike in binomial where there is only two possible outcomes(i.e success and failure).
B.UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
Uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and it is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. A distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely.
C. EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
The distribution is also known as negative exponential distribution, it describes time between events in a Poisson process. It is mostly used for testing product reliability. The exponential often models waiting times and can help you to answer questions like: How much time will i go before my car breaks down?

1a) Poisson probability distribution:
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The probability density function is given as;
{ P(X=x) = (λ^x*e^(-λ)) / x! }
where, e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
x is the number of occurrences
x! is the factorial of x
λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance
The mean = λ
The variance = λ
The standard deviation = λ^0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same. The probability density function is given as:
{ Px = 1 / n }
where, Px = probability of a discrete value
n = number of values in the range
The mean = 0
The variance = 1
The standard deviation = 1

c) Exponential probability distribution:
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes, it is found in various other contexts. The probability density function is given as;
{ f(x)= λe^(- λx) }
The mean = 1/ λ
The variance =1/ λ^2
The standard deviation =(1/ λ^2)^0.5

2) P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses)
N=6+20=26
n=7, r=6
P(X=x)= ( rCx * N-rCn-x ) / NCn
P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses) = ( 6C4 * 20C3 ) / 26C7
=( 15 *1140 ) / 657800
= 0.02599574339

3) P(X=x) = p*q^x
p=0.35, q=1-p=0.65
Before she got married at the 8th relationship, she failed in the first seven relationships. So x is 7. Therefore,
P(x=7)=0.35 *(0.65)7
= 0.01715779762

4a) No chocolate chips.
P(X=x) = (λ^x*e^-λ) / x!
λ = 50 / 12 = 4.166666667 = 4
e = 2.7183, x = 0
P(x=0) = [ 40 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 0!
= [ 1 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 1
= 0.01831514914
b) 7 chocolate chips.
P(X=x) = (λ^x*e^-λ) / x!
λ = 50 / 12 = 4.166666667 = 4
e = 2.7183, x = 7
P(x=7) = [ 47 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 7!
= [ 16384 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 5040
= 0.05953877054

11. NNABUIKE CHISOM FAVOUR. (2019/245685) says:

1a. POISSON PROBABLITY DISTRIBUTION
The distribution is called the Poisson distribution (after S.D Poisson who discovered it in the early part of the nineteenth century),a random variable having this distribution is said to be Poisson distributed. It often appears in connection with the study of sequence of random events occurring over time or space. It has been used to model the distribution of the number of events, in a specific period of time or a specific unit of space (e.g the number of customers passing through a cashier’s counter ). This distribution is very important to managers.

b. UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
Uniform probability distribution is also called a rectangular distribution. It plays a very important role in statistics and econometrics. It has a special use in rounding errors when measurements are recorded to some degree of accuracy.

c. EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
Exponential distribution is another special case of the Gamma distribution. It is the only continuous distribution with memory less property. It is of considerable importance and widely used in statistics and econometrics. It has been used to model time duration of economic events such as the employment spell of a worker. It is often used in practical problem or represent the distribution of time that elapse before the occurrence of some events, for instance, the time required to serving a customer at some service facility.

1a) Poisson probability distribution:
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The formula is stated below:
{ P(X=x) = (λ^x*e^-λ) / x! }
where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)
x is the number of events in an area of opportunity
x! is the factorial of x
λ is the expected number of events
The mean = λ
The variance = λ
The standard deviation = λ0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:
{ Px = 1 / n }
where, Px = probability of a discrete value
n = number of values in the range

c) Exponential probability distribution:
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:
{ f(x)= λe^(- λx )}
The mean = 1/ λ
The variance =1/ λ2
The standard deviation =(1/ λ2)0.5

where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)

x is the number of events in an area of opportunity

x! is the factorial of x

λ is the expected number of events

The mean = λ

The variance = λ

The standard deviation = λ^0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:

The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive of endpoints. The formula is:

{ Px = 1 / n }

where, Px = probability of a discrete value

n = number of values in the range

c) Exponential probability distribution:

The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:

{ f(x)= λe^(- λx) }

The mean = 1/ λ

The variance =1/ λ^2

The standard deviation =(1/ λ^2)^0.5

2) P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses)

N=6+20=26

n=7, r=6

P(X=x)= ( rCx * N-rCn-x ) / NCn

P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses) = ( 6C4 * 20C3 ) / 26C7

=( 15 *1140 ) / 657800

= 0.02599574339

3) P(X=x) = p*q^x

p=0.35, q=1-p=0.65

Before she got married at the 8th relationship, she failed in the first seven relationships. So x is 7. Therefore,

P(x=7)=0.35 *(0.65)^7

= 0.01715779762

4a) No chocolate chips.

P(X=x) = (λ^x*e^-λ) / x!

λ = 50 / 12 = 4.166666667 = 4

e = 2.7183, x = 0

P(x=0) = [ 40 * (2.7183)^(-4) ] / 0!

= [ 1 * (2.7183)^(-4) ] / 1

= 0.01831514914

b) 7 chocolate chips.

P(X=x) = (λ^x*e^-λ) / x!

λ = 50 / 12 = 4.166666667 = 4

e = 2.7183, x = 7

P(x=7) = [ 47 * (2.7183)^(-4) ] / 7!

= [ 16384 * (2.7183)^(-4) ] / 5040

= 0.05953877054

1. Write short notes on the following types of probability distributions:
a. Poisson probability distribution: it is used when you’re interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity . An area of opportunity is an area in which more than one event can occur. In possion distribution, we have unlimited number of outcomes. Examples include:Number of mosquito bites on a person , number of car scratches on a car paint etc.this is very helpful for planning processes as it enables managers to analyze consumer’s behaviour.
b. Uniform probability distribution: it is also known as Continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution. It is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
c. Exponential probability distribution: This is usually present, when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing. For e.g news, blogsetc.It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process.

QUESTION ONE
POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION: The probability distribution of a Poisson random variable X representing the number of successes occurring in a given time interval or a specified region of space is given by the formula
P(X=x)= lxel
x! where
{x}={0},{1},{2},{3}\ldotsx=0,1,2,3…
{e}={2.71828}e=2.71828 (but use your calculator’s e button
mu=μ= mean number of successes in the given time interval or region of space
The Poisson random variable satisfies the following conditions:
The number of successes in two disjoint time intervals is independent.
The probability of a success during a small time interval is proportional to the entire length of the time interval.
Apart from disjoint time intervals, the Poisson random variable also applies to disjoint regions of space.
The Poisson distribution is often used in situations where we are counting the number of successes in a particular region or interval of time, and there are a large number of trials, each with a small probability of success. For example, the following random variables could follow a distribution that is approximately Poisson.
• The number of emails you receive in an hour. There are a lot of people who could potentially email you in that hour, but it is unlikely that any specific person will actually email you in that hour. Alternatively, imagine subdividing the hour into milliseconds. There are 3.6×106 seconds in an hour, but in any specific millisecond it is unlikely that you will get an email.
• The number of chips in a chocolate chip cookie. Imagine subdividing the cookie into small cubes; the probability of getting a chocolate chip in a single cube is small, but the number of cubes is large.
• The number of earthquakes in a year in some region of the world. At any given time and location, the probability of an earthquake is small, but there are a large number of possible times and locations for earthquakes to occur over the course of the year.
The parameter λ is interpreted as the rate of occurrence of these rare events; in the examples above, λ could be 20 (emails per hour), 10 (chips per cookie), and 2 (earthquakes per year). The Poisson paradigm says that in applications similar to the ones above, we can approximate the distribution of the number of events that occur by a Poisson distribution.
b)UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION: The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. A uniform distribution, also called a rectangular distribution, is a probability distribution that has constant probability.
This distribution is defined by two parameters, a and b:
a is the minimum.
b is the maximum.
The distribution is written as U(a, b).
When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. Let F be a CDF which is a continuous function and strictly increasing on the support of the distribution. This ensures that the inverse function F−1 exists, as a function from (0, 1) to R. We then have the following results.
1. Let U ∼ Unif(0, 1) and X = F−1 (U). Then X is an r.v. with CDF F. Let X be an r.v. with CDF F. Then F(X) ∼ Unif(0, 1).
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.
C) EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION: The exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution used to model the time elapsed before a given event occurs. SometimesSometimes it is also called negative exponential distribution. The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length of time, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.
Values for an exponential random variable occur in the following way. There are fewer large values and more small values. For example, marketing studies have shown that the amount of money customers spend in one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution. There are more people who spend small amounts of money and fewer people who spend large amounts of money.
Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts.

1a.) Possion Distribution:
Poisson distribution is a type of discrete probability function that describes the number of times an event occurs in a specified period of time.It has to do with time and frequency.Its formula is=π^x–e^-π÷ x!. The π is the parameter of the distribution which indicates the number of events in a given time interval.The e in the distribution is permanent it is =2.7183.

B.)Uniform Distribution:
Uniform Distribution is a continuous distribution that assigns only positive probabilities within a specified interval.Uniform Distribution is a probability distribution where probability of x is constant.It is a form of probability distribution in which every possible outcome has equal chances of occurring.The probability is constant since each variable has equal opportunity of being the outcome.

C.)Exponential Distribution:
Exponential distribution is a continuous distribution that is commonly used to measure the expected time for an event to occur.It is defined as the reciprocal of the scale parameter and indicates how quickly decay of the exponential function occurs.Its formular is F(x;\π) = {πe^{-π X> 0 .0. X< 0}.
F(x;\π)=probability density function ;π=rate parameter; x=random variable.

b. Uniform probability distribution: Uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely to occur. Now, the difference between Normal Distribution and Uniform Distribution is a probability distribution which peaks at the middle and gradually decreases. It is a probability distribution where probability of X is highest at the center and lowest in the ends WHEREAS Uniform probability distribution of X is constant.
The Distribution describes where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
The notation for Uniform distribution is X〰️U(a b) where a=lowest Value of X and b=highest Value of X.

1a) Poisson probability distribution:

The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The formula is stated below:

{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }

where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)

x is the number of events in an area of opportunity

x! is the factorial of x

λ is the expected number of events

The mean = λ

The variance = λ

The standard deviation = λ0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:

The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:

{ Px = 1 / n }

where, Px = probability of a discrete value

n = number of values in the range

c) Exponential probability distribution:

The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:

{ f(x)= λe- λx }

The mean = 1/ λ

The variance =1/ λ2

The standard deviation =(1/ λ2)0.5

1a) Poisson probability distribution:

The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The formula is stated below:

{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }

where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)

x is the number of events in an area of opportunity

x! is the factorial of x

λ is the expected number of events

The mean = λ

The variance = λ

The standard deviation = λ0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:

The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:

{ Px = 1 / n }

where, Px = probability of a discrete value

n = number of values in the range

c) Exponential probability distribution:

The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:

{ f(x)= λe- λx }

The mean = 1/ λ

The variance =1/ λ2

Poisson Distribution
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. In Poisson distribution there can be unlimited number of possibleoutcomes.it can also be said to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is called a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. The Poisson distribution is used in testing how unusual an event frequency is for a given interval. It was named after the French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The Poisson distribution is also a discrete function, which means that the variable can only take specific values in an infinite list Its formula is: P(X=x)= e-ƛƛx/x!
Uniform Distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution is a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards for example has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails is equal or the same. Uniform probability has two types which are Discrete and Continuous. In a discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability while in a continuous uniform distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite. In a normal distribution, data around the mean occur more frequently and the frequency of occurrence decreases the farther you are from the mean in a normal distribution. The formula is written as: X~U(a,b).
Exponential Distribution
The exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution that concerns the amount of time until some specific event happens. It is usually present when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing early on for example, news, blog etc. It is a process in which events happen continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential random variable is said to be either more small values or fewer larger variables. For example, the amount of money spent by the customer on one trip to the market is an exponential distribution. Its formula is written as:
P(X=x)=me-mx=1µe-1µx, where, m= the parameter, and µ the average time of occurrence.

POISSON DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution, was named after a French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time
Poisson distribution, in statistics, a distribution function useful for characterizing events with very low probabilities of occurrence within some definite time or space. … Letting p represent the probability of a win on any given try, the mean, or average, number of wins (λ) in n tries will be given by λ = np
Poisson distribution is a discreet function meaning that the variable can only take a specific values in a list
Poisson distribution is a theoretical discrete probability and is also known as the Poisson distribution probability mass function. It is used to find the probability of an independent event that is occurring in a fixed interval of time and has a constant mean rate. The Poisson distribution probability mass function can also be used in other fixed intervals such as volume, area, distance, etc. A Poisson random variable will relatively describe a phenomenon if there are few successes over many trials. The Poisson distribution is used as a limiting case of the binomial distribution when the trials are large indefinitely. If a Poisson distribution models the same binomial phenomenon, λ is replaced by np
Poisson distribution is: f(x) = P(X=x) = (e-λ λx )/x!
Where:
x = 0, 1, 2, 3…
e is the Euler’s number
λ is an average rate of value and variance, also λ>0

UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION
uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
uniform distribution, in statistics, distribution function in which every possible result is equally likely; that is, the probability of each occurring is the same.
The theory of point sets and sequences having a uniform distribution. Uniform distribution theory is important in modeling and simulation, and especially in so-called Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo methods, and seeks to characterize and construct well distributed point sets and sequences.
Any situation in which every outcome in a sample space is equally likely will use a uniform distribution. One example of this in a discrete case is rolling a single standard die. There are a total of six sides of the die, and each side has the same probability of being rolled face up.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x. The probability density function is f(x)=1b−a f ( x ) = 1 b − a for a ≤ x ≤ n.
EXPONENTIAL DISTRIBUTION
Exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at aconstant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution.The Poisson distribution deals with the number of occurrences in a fixed period of time, and the exponential distribution deals with the time between occurrences of successive events as time flows by continuously. … The both distribution are used in queuing systems.
For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length of time, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts.
The formula for the exponential distribution: P ( X = x ) = m e – m x = 1 μ e – 1 μ x P ( X = x ) = m e – m x = 1 μ e – 1 μ x Where m = the rate parameter, or μ = average time between occurrences.

4. To make a dozen chocolate cookies, 50 chocolate chips are mixed into a dough. The same proportion is used for all batches. If a cookie is chosen at random from a large batch, also using landa (the mean) to the nearest whole number. What is the probability that it contains;
No chocolate chips
Solution
P(X=x) = e-ƛƛx/x!
ƛ = 50/12 = 4 (to the nearest whole number)
P(X=0) = e-4(4)0/0! = 0.0183
7 chocolate chips
Solution
P(X=x) = e-ƛƛx/x!
ƛ = 50/12 = 4 (to the nearest whole number)
P(X=7) = e-4(4)7/7! = 0.0595

1a) In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.
b) In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.The uniform distribution can be visualized as a straight horizontal line, so for a coin flip returning a head or tail, both have a probability p = 0.50 and would be depicted by a line from the y-axis at 0.50.
c) In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memory less.

1a) Poisson probability distribution:

The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The formula is stated below:

{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }

where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)

x is the number of events in an area of opportunity

x! is the factorial of x

λ is the expected number of events

The mean = λ

The variance = λ

The standard deviation = λ0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:

The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:

{ Px = 1 / n }

where, Px = probability of a discrete value

n = number of values in the range

c) Exponential probability distribution:

The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:

{ f(x)= λe- λx }

The mean = 1/ λ

The variance =1/ λ2

The standard deviation =(1/ λ2)0.5

In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event. The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.
The Poisson Distribution formula is: P(x; μ) = (e^-μ) (μ^x) / x!
Uniform Distribution:
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.
Exponential distribution:
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.
The formula for the exponential distribution: P ( X = x ) = m e – m x = 1 μ e – 1 μ x P ( X = x ) = m e – m x = 1 μ e – 1 μ x Where m = the rate parameter, or μ = average time between occurrences.

49. 1a) POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
A Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.
The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list.
Formular:
P(X:x) = (e^-λ λ^x )/x!
Where:
e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
x is the number of occurrences
x! is the factorial of x
λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance.

1b) UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
A uniform distribution, also called a rectangular distribution, is a probability distribution that has constant probability.
This distribution is defined by two parameters, a and b:
a is the minimum.
b is the maximum.
The distribution is written as U(a, b). Like all probability distributions for continuous random variables.
1c) EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
Exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.
The exponential distribution has the memoryless property, which says that future probabilities do not depend on any past information.

A: Poisson probability distribution is used to shows how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period.
Poisson distribution is a discrete function meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a list.

B: Uniform Distribution:
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.
The histogram that could be constructed from the sample is an empirical distribution that closely matches the theoretical uniform
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.
The probability density function is f(x)=1b−a(x)=1b−a for a ≤ x ≤ b.
C; Exponential probability distribution;
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.
Values for an exponential random variable occur in the following way. There are fewer large values and more small values. For example, the amount of money customers spend in one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution. There are more people who spend small amounts of money and fewer people who spend large amounts of money.
The exponential distribution is widely used in the field of reliability. Reliability deals with the amount of time a product lasts.

1. Write short notes on the following types of probability distributions:
a. Poisson probability distribution: it is used when you’re interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity . An area of opportunity is an area in which more than one event can occur. In possion distribution, we have unlimited number of outcomes. Examples include: number of marker strokes on the white board, number of car scratches on a car paint etc
b. Uniform probability distribution: it is also known as Continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution. It is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
c. Exponential probability distribution: This is usually present, when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing. For e.g. news, blogs etc. It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process. exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events.

a. Poisson distribution is a type of discrete probability distribution that is used when interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. Here, there is an unlimited number of possible outcomes. Some examples are the number of car accidents on a particular road, number of injuries on a person’s body.
b. Uniform probability distribution is a distribution in which possible outcomes are equally likely to occur. For example, tossing a coin. The chances of getting a head or tail are equal.
c. Exponential probability distribution enables individuals (or groups of persons) to measure the expected time for an event to occur. It is usually present when dealing with events that change frequently. For example, post or updates on a blog.

1a. POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
Poisson distribution often appears in connection with the study of sequences of random events occurring over time or space. Suppose, starting from a time point t = 0, we start counting the number of events. Then for each value of t, we obtain an integer denoted by N (t), which is the number of events that have occurred during the time period [0, t].

Poisson Probability Distribution
The Poisson Distribution is a tool used in probability theory statistics to predict the amount of variation from a known average rate of occurrence, within a given time frame.In other words, if the average rate at which a specific event happens within a specified time frame is known or can be determined (e.g., Event “A” happens, on average, “x” times per hour), then the Poisson Distribution can be used as follows:
To determine how much variation there will likely be from that average number of occurrences
To determine the probable maximum and minimum number of times the event will occur within the specified time frame.
Poisson Distribution theme
Companies can utilize the Poisson Distribution to examine how they may be able to take steps to improve their operational efficiency. For instance, an analysis done with the Poisson Distribution might reveal how a company can arrange staffing in order to be able to better handle peak periods for customer service calls.
Uniform Probability Distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.
The uniform distribution can be visualized as a straight horizontal line, so for a coin flip returning a head or tail, both have a probability p = 0.50 and would be depicted by a line from the y-axis at 0.50

Exponential Probability Distribution
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.
Values for an exponential random variable occur in the following way. There are fewer large values and more small values. For example, the amount of money customers spend in one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution. There are more people who spend small amounts of money and fewer people who spend large amounts of money.

1a) Poisson Distribution
Poisson distribution, in statistic, a distribution function useful for characterizing events with very low probabilities of occurrence within some definite time or space. The French mathematician Simeon-Denis poison developed his function in 1830 to describe the number of times a gambler would win a rarely won game of chance in a large number of tries. Letting p represent the probability of a win on any given try, the mean, or average, number of wins (λ) in n tries will be given by λ = np. Using the Swiss mathematician Jakob Bernoulli’s binomial distribution, Poisson showed that the probability of obtaining k wins is approximately λk/e−λk!, where e is the exponential function and k! = k(k − 1)(k − 2)⋯2∙1. Noteworthy is the fact that λ equals both the mean and variance (a measure of the dispersal of data away from the dispersal of data away from mean) from the Poisson distribution

b) The Uniform Probability Distribution
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.

c) The Exponential Probability Distribution
The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. We will now mathematically define the exponential distribution, and derive its mean and expected value. Then we will develop the intuition for the distribution and discuss several interesting properties that it

c. Exponential probability distribution:
Exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.

1a. Poisson Probability Distribution: This is used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. An area of opportunity is a continuous unit or interval of time, volume or such area in which more than one occurrence of an event can occur. Here, there can be unlimited number of possible outcomes unlike in binomial distribution where we have only two possible outcomes i.e success or failure.
Examples include: The number of car accidents over a certain range of a road, the number of computer crashes in a day.

1.Poisson probability distribution: A Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specific period of time. Poisson distribution is often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. A Poisson distribution is a discrete function, it means that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list, the variables can only take the values 0,1,2,3,4 and so on… without any fractions or decimals. Formula=P(X=x)=(λ^x × e^-λ)/x!

b. Uniform probability distribution: This refers to a type of distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same. Formula= P(X=x)=1/b-a

There are two types of uniform probability distribution and they are; discrete and continuous. The possible result for rolling a die provide an example of discrete uniform distribution, it is possible to roll a 1,2,3,4,5 or 6 but it is not possible to roll a 2.3,4.5 or 5.3. some uniform distribution is continuous rather than discrete. An idealized random number generator would be considered a continuous uniform distribution, every point in the continuous range between 0.0 and 1.0 has an equal opportunity of appearing, yet there’s an infinite number of points between 0.0 and 1.0.

C. Exponential probability distribution: The exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process that is a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. In other words, an exponential probability distribution is a continuous distribution that is commonly used to measure the expected time of an event to occur. Formula=P(X=x)= λe^-λx

P (4 docs and 3 nurses):
r=6
n=7
N=26
X= 4 docs and 3 nurses
P(X=4)= [rCx] . [N-rCn-x]/NCn
= (6C4)(20C3)/26C7
=15 . 1140/657800
=17100/657800
=0.026.
Then for nurses x= n-x = 7-3=4
(6C4)(20C3)/26C7
=0.026
Therefore p( 4doctors and 3 nurses) = 0.026 . 0.026
= 0.0076

1a)POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
This is a discrete random variables that is often useful in estimating the number of occurrences over a specified interval of time or space. For example, the random variable of interest might be the number of arrivals at a car wash in one hour, the number of repairs needed in 10 miles of highway or the number of leaks in 100 miles of pipeline. In Poisson probability distribution, the probability of an occurrence is the same for any two intervals of equal length. Also, the occurrence or non-occurrence in any other interval is independent of the occurrence in any other interval. The Poisson probability distribution function is
P(x)=e^-√•√*/x!
Where u is the distribution mean and can also be represented by lambda and x is the number of expected.
1b) UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
This is a continuous discrete random variables that its probability is always proportional to the length of the interval. It shows that a random variable value within a specified interval.For example,a uniform probability distribution question can be what is probability that the flight time is between 120 and 130 minutes?
P(x)={1/b-a} or 1b-a for a<x0, u>0 where x is the number of time and u is the average number of times an event occurred.
2)nCr=n!/r!(n-r)! We solve for the problem by using combination because it has to do with selection.
Step 1: solve for the total number of Doctors selected
n=6,r=4
nCr =n!/r!(n-r)! = 6!/4!(6-4)!=15
Step 2:Solve for the total number of Nurses selected
n=20,r=3
nCr=n!/r!(n-r)!=20!/3!(20-3)!=1140
The total number of people selected =the total number of Doctors selected + the total number of Nurses selected =15+1140 =1155
3) Geometric probability distribution function = pq* or p(1-q)*
P= 0.35
q=1-p=1-0.35=0.65
X=8-1=7
P(x)=pq*=0.35(0.65)^7 =0.35(0.4902)=0.0172
4)This is a poisson probability distribution function is
P(x)=e^-√•√
A)No chocolate chips
√=4,x=0
P(0)=e^-4•4^0/0! =0.0183
P(x)=0.0183
B)7 chocolate chips
X=7,√=4
P(7)=e^-4•4^7/7!
P(7) =0.0183•16384/5040=0.0595
P(X)=0.0595

1. Poisson probability distribution:
In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event. The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.
The Poisson Distribution formula is: P(x; μ) = (e^-μ) (μ^x) / x!

Uniform Distribution:
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.

Exponential distribution:
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.
The formula for the exponential distribution: P ( X = x ) = m e – m x = 1 μ e – 1 μ x P ( X = x ) = m e – m x = 1 μ e – 1 μ x Where m = the rate parameter, or μ = average time between occurrences.

ECO231 ASSIGNMENT.
Write short notes on the following types of probability distributions:

Poisson probability distribution: it is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. It is a discrete function meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list Examples include number of mosquito bite on person,number of car accidents over a certain range of a road, number of computer crashes in a day etc.
Uniform probability distribution: it is also known as Continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution.Uniform probability distribution are probability distribution with equally likely outcome. It is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
Exponential probability distribution: it is a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process.

1a) Poisson probability distribution:

In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The formula is stated below:

{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }

where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)

x is the number of events in an area of opportunity

x! is the factorial of x

λ is the expected number of events

The mean = λ

The variance = λ

The standard deviation = λ0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:

The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:

{ Px = 1 / n }

where, Px = probability of a discrete value

n = number of values in the range

c) Exponential probability distribution:

The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:

{ f(x)= λe- λx }

The mean = 1/ λ

The variance =1/ λ2

The standard deviation =(1/ λ2)0.5

The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:

{ Px = 1 / n }

where, Px = probability of a discrete value

n = number of values in the range

c) Exponential probability distribution:

The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:

{ f(x)= λe- λx }

The mean = 1/ λ

The variance =1/ λ2

The standard deviation =(1/ λ2)0.5

2) P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses)

n=7, r=6

P(X=x)= ( rCx * N-rCn-x ) / NCn

P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses) = ( 6C4 * 20C3 ) / 26C7

=( 15 *1140 ) / 657800

= 0.02599574339

3) P(X=x) = pqx

p=0.35, q=1-p=0.65

Before she got married at the 8th relationship, she failed in the first seven relationships. So x is 7. Therefore,

P(x=7)=0.35 *(0.65)7

= 0.01715779762

4a) No chocolate chips.

P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x!

λ = 50 / 12 = 4.166666667 = 4

e = 2.7183, x = 0

P(x=0) = [ 40 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 0!

= [ 1 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 1

= 0.01831514914

b) 7 chocolate chips.

P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x!

λ = 50 / 12 = 4.166666667 = 4

e = 2.7183, x = 7

P(x=7) = [ 47 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 7!

= [ 16384 * (2.7183)-4 ] / 5040

1) a. Poisson distribution – This is used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. An area of opportunity is a continuous unit or interval of time, volume or such area in which more than one occurrence of an event can occur. Therefore, Poisson distribution can be simply defined as a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time or period.

b. Uniform probability distribution – This is a continuous probability distribution that is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur when working about problems that have a uniform distribution, we note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.

c. Exponential probability distribution – It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process. It has a memoryless property. It is used to model the time elapsed before a given event occurs.

2) 6 Doctors and 20 Nurses
7 names randomly selected without replacement
No of possible outcome = 26
P (4 doctors and 3 nurses) = 4/26 X 3/22 = 12/572 = 3/143

3) This implies failure would occur 7 times before she gets married (at the 8th trial)
Let X be the number of relationships before her marriage
P (X = X) = P (1 – P)^x or PQ^x
P (X = 7) = 0.35 x (0.65)^7
P (X = 7) = 0.0172

4) a. Lambda = 50, X = 0
P (X = x) = e^-lambda Lambda^x / x!
P (X = 0) = e^-50 . 50^0 / 0!
= e^-50 . 1 / 1 = 1.92875
= approximately 2

b. Lambda = 50, X = 7
P (X = 7) = e^-50 . 50^7 / 7!
= 1.9287498E-22 . 7.8125E11 / 5046
= 2.9861986
= approximately 3.

Examples include:Number of car scratches on a car paint, number of accident that happened on a particular road, number of blue cars that passed a particular road etc.this is very useful to managers to know how customers feel about their product or services.
b. Uniform probability distribution: Uniform Probability distribution is a Continuous distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely.

1a) Poisson probability distribution:

The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The formula is stated below:

{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }

where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)

x is the number of events in an area of opportunity

x! is the factorial of x

λ is the expected number of events

The mean = λ

The variance = λ

The standard deviation = λ0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:

The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:

Poisson Probability Distribution
This is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event occurred in a particular area of opportunity over a specified period of time. They involve independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given period of time. It is a discrete function (uses discrete numbers).

Uniform Probability Distribution
This refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. For example, a deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a hat, a club, a diamond or a spade is equally likely. There are two types; Discrete Uniform Distribution Probability and Continuous Uniform Probability Distribution.

Exponential Probability Distribution:
This is the distribution of the time between events in a Poisson Point process, that is, a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It answers such questions as:
How much long do we need to wait until a costumer enters our shop? How long will a piece of machinery work without breaking down?

1A] POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION

The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. The French mathematician Siméon-Denis Poisson developed this function in 1830 to describe the number of times a gambler would win a rarely won game of chance in a large number of tries. It is a tool that helps to predict the probability of certain events happening when you know how often the event has occurred. It gives us the probability of a given number of events happening in a fixed interval of time.

B] UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION

In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A uniform distribution, also called a rectangular distribution, is a probability distribution that has constant probability.

This distribution is defined by two parameters, a and b:

a is the minimum.
b is the maximum.

C] EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION

The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. In Probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution that often concerns the amount of time until some specific event happens. It is a process in which events happen continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential distribution has the key property of being memoryless. The exponential random variable can be either more small values or fewer larger variables. For example, the amount of money spent by the customer on one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution.

Poisson Probability Distribution
Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period of time. It can be used to estimate how likely it is that something will happen “X” number of times. It enables managers to introduce optimal scheduling systems that would not work with, say, a normal distribution.
Uniform Probability Distribution
Uniform distributions are probability distributions with equally likely outcomes. For example, a coin has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same. They are of two types; Discrete and Continuous Uniform Distribution. In discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability while in Continuous uniform distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite.
Exponential Probability Distribution
This is a continuous probability distribution used to model the time elapsed before a given event occurs. Sometimes it is also called a negative exponential distribution. It answers questions like: How much time will elapse before an earthquake occurs in a given region? How long will it take before a call center receives the next phone call?

Answers to question 1: (A) Poisson Probability Distribution?
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.
Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.
USES OF POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
1)Poisson distributions are used by businessmen to make forecasts about the number of customers or sales on certain days or seasons of the year.
2)With the Poisson distribution, companies can adjust supply to demand in order to keep their business earning good profit. In addition, waste of resources is prevented.
3)By using this tool, businessmen are able to estimate the time when demand is unusually higher, so they can purchase more stock.
(B) The Uniform Probability Distribution
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.
Uniform distribution is a term used to describe a form of probability distribution where every possible outcome has an equal likelihood of happening. The probability is constant since each variable has equal chances of being the outcome.
Example of Uniform Distribution
If you stand on a street corner and start to randomly hand a \$100 bill to any lucky person who walked by, then every passerby would have an equal chance of being handed the money. The percentage of the probability is 1 divided by the total number of outcomes (number of passersby). However, if you favored short people or women, they would have a higher chance of being given the \$100 bill than the other passersby. It would not be described as uniform probability.
Types of Uniform Distribution
1) Discrete uniform distribution
In statistics and probability theory, a discrete uniform distribution is a statistical distribution where the probability of outcomes is equally likely and with finite values.
2)Continuous uniform distribution
Not all uniform distributions are discrete; some are continuous. A continuous uniform distribution (also referred to as rectangular distribution) is a statistical distribution with an infinite number of equally likely measurable values. Unlike discrete random variables, a continuous random variable can take any real value within a specified range.A continuous uniform distribution usually comes in a rectangular shape. A good example of a continuous uniform distribution is an idealized random number generator. With continuous uniform distribution, just like discrete uniform distribution, every variable has an equal chance of happening. However, there is an infinite number of points that can exist.

Median (A + B)/2
Range B – A
Standard Deviation (B−A)212−−−−−√
Coefficient of Variation (B−A)3√(B+A)
Skewness 0
Kurtosis 9/5
(C) Exponential Probability distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.The exponential distribution refers to the continuous and constant probability distribution which is actually used to model the time period that a person needs to wait before the given event happens and this distribution is a continuous counterpart of a geometric distribution that is instead distinct.
A continuous random variable X is said to have an exponential distribution with parameter λ>0, shown as X∼Exponential(λ), if its PDF is given by
fX(x)={λe−λx0x>0otherwise.

1a. Poisson probability distribution: this is a statistical instrument that’s helps to tell the probability of some events occurring when we know how often the event has occurred, that’s to say, poisson distribution gives the probability of a given number of events occurring at a fixed interval of time.
The poisson probability distribution is a discrete function and this means that it’s variables can take finite values such as values like 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 etc, without decimals or fractions.
The formula for the Poisson probability distribution is given as: P(X=x)=(λ^x × e^-λ)/x!. Where;
e is the Euler’s number
x is the number of occurrence
λ is equal to its mean and variance
x! Is the factorial of x
The Poisson distribution can also be useful in biology, finance and any other situation in which events are time-independent.
1b. Uniform probability distribution: in statistics, this is a type of continuous distribution that describes the probability of events occurring equally. It’s also called rectangular distribution. It has a constant probability and it’s defined by two parameters, a and b. Where;
a is the minimum and
b is the maximum
There are two types of uniform probability distribution namely: the discrete uniform probability distribution and the continuous uniform probability distribution.
In a discrete uniform probability distribution the outcomes of events finite and have the same probability for instance, the probability of tossing a coin will result in either a head or tail and its probability is the same. While in a continuous uniform probability distribution the outcomes of events are infinite and it can range between 0.0 and 0.1 with an equal chance of occurring.
The formula for the uniform probability distribution is given as: P(X=x)=1/b-a
1c. Exponential probability distribution: this is a continuous distribution that deals with the amount of time before an event occurs that is, it’s used to measure the expected time for an event to occur. The formula is given as: P(X=x)= λe^-λx.

POISSON DISTRIBUTION
Poisson Probability Distribution is another Discrete Random Variable. The Poisson Distribution is used to measure Time,Frequency,and Rate. In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event. The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.
The Greek Letter Lamba(λ) is called the parameter of distribution which represents average number of times the Random Variable occurs in a specified interval or Space.
A discrete random variable is said to have a Poisson distribution, with parameter λ>0. It has a probability mass function given by:

P(X=x)=(λ^x × e^-λ)/x!
where:
x is the number of occurrences
e is Eulers number (e=2.7183)
! is the factorial function.

UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds. The bounds are defined by the parameters, a and b, which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be closed (e.g. [a, b]) or open (e.g. (a, b)). Therefore, the distribution is often abbreviated U (a, b), where U stands for uniform distribution.The difference between the bounds defines the interval length; all intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support are equally probable. It is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a random variable X under no constraint other than that it is contained in the distribution’s support.
The probability that a uniformly distributed random variable falls within any interval of fixed length is independent of the location of the interval itself (but it is dependent on the interval size), so long as the interval is contained in the distribution’s support.
It has a probability mass function given by:
P(X=x)=1/b-a

EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.
The exponential distribution is sometimes parametrized in terms of the scale parameter β = 1/λ,which is also the mean.The mean or expected value of an exponentially distributed random variable X with rate parameter λ is given by. E(X)=1/λ,.
The exponential distribution is consequently also necessarily the only continuous probability distribution that has a constant failure rate.

Poisson Distribution
The poison distribution is a theoretical discrete probability distribution that is very useful in situations where the discrete events occur in a continuous manner. This has a huge application in many practical scenario like determining the number of calls received per minute at a call centre or the number of unbaked cookies in a batch at a bakery and much more.
Uniform Distribution
A discrete uniform probability distributions one in which all elementary events in the sample space have an equal opportunity of occurring. As a result, for a finite sample space of size n, the probability of an elementary event occurring is 1/n.
Exponential Distribution
The exponential probability (also called the negative exponential probability) is a probability distribution that describes time between events in a poison process. There is a strong relationship between the poison distribution and the exponential distribution. For example let’s say a poison distribution models the number of birth in a given period.

*Poisson Probability Distribution*
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading.
*Uniform Probability Distribution*
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive of endpoints.
*Exponential Probability Distribution*
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length of time, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.

c) Exponential probability distribution:
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:
{ f(x)= λe- λx }
The mean = 1/ λ
The variance =1/ λ2
The standard deviation =(1/ λ2)0.5

1. (a) POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
This is a probability distribution of a discrete random variable that stands for the number (count) of statistically independent events occurring within a unit of time or space. The probability function (A mathematical function giving the probability occurrence to different outcomes of an experiment) is defined as;
f(x) =P(X=x)=(e^(-λ).λ^x)/x!, f(x) = ∑_(k=0)^(k=x)▒〖f(k)〗, x = 0,I,2…
Where;
x = Number of events in an area of opportunity
𝝀 = Expected number of events
e = Base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828…)

This Distribution was introduced by Simeon Denis Poisson when he discussed the wrongful conviction of prisoners in a given country by focusing on certain random variables
that count the number of discrete occurrences (events/arrivals) that take place during a time interval of a given length. It has a strong theoretical background and very wide spectrum of practical applications.
The Poisson Probability Distribution is a special case of Binominal Distribution. In some situations, the former one can be used to approximate the latter one
(b). UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
The uniform distribution (continuous) is one of the simplest probability distributions in statistics. It is a continuous distribution, this means that it takes values within a specified range, e.g. between 0 and 1. A probability experiment with a uniform probability distribution has a sample space (set of all possible outcomes) for which each value is equally likely. That is, if there are 𝑛 possible values then 𝑃(𝑋 = 𝑥) = 1/n for every 𝑥. It’s important to understand that this doesn’t mean that each outcome is equally likely, but rather that each value is equally likely.
The probability function is;
F(x)= {█(1/(b-a) @0)┤
For a ≤ x ≤ b
For x b
(c). EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
The exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. An interesting feature of the Poisson and Exponential distribution is that if Poisson provides an appropriate description of the number of occurrence per interval of time, then the Exponential distribution will provide a description of the length of tome between the occurrence. The Exponential distribution is usually present when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing early; for example, blogs

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, is a discrete probability distSoribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event.The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.

UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds. The bounds are defined by the parameters, a and b, which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be closed (e.g. [a, b]) or open (e.g. (a, b)).[2] Therefore, the distribution is often abbreviated U (a, b), where U stands for uniform distribution. The difference between the bounds defines the interval length; all intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support are equally probable.

A-The Poisson distribution is a discrete probability function that means the variable can only take specific values in a given list of numbers, probably infinite. A Poisson distribution measures how many times an event is likely to occur within “x” period of time. In other words, we can define it as the probability distribution that results from the Poisson experiment. A Poisson experiment is a statistical experiment that classifies the experiment into two categories, such as success or failure. Poisson distribution is a limiting process of the binomial distribution.

B-Uniform distributions are probability distributions with equally likely outcomes. In a discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability. … The frequency of occurrence decreases the farther you are from the mean in a normal distribution.The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x. The probability density function is f(x)=1b−a f ( x ) = 1 b − a for a ≤ x ≤ b.

C-the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate.For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length of time, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts.

POISSON DISTRIBUTION
Poisson Probability Distribution is another Discrete Random Variable. The Poisson Distribution is used to measure Time,Frequency,and Rate. In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event. The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.
The Greek Letter Lamba(λ) is called the parameter of distribution which represents average number of times the Random Variable occurs in a specified interval or Space.
A discrete random variable is said to have a Poisson distribution, with parameter λ>0. It has a probability mass function given by:

P(X=x)=(λ^x × e^-λ)/x!
where:
x is the number of occurrences
e is Eulers number (e=2.7183)
! is the factorial function.

UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the uniform distribution also called rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds. The bounds are defined by the parameters, a and b, which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be closed (e.g. [a, b]) or open (e.g. (a, b)). Therefore, the distribution is often abbreviated U (a, b), where U stands for uniform distribution.The difference between the bounds defines the interval length; all intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support are equally probable.
The probability that a uniformly distributed random variable falls within any interval of fixed length is independent of the location of the interval itself (but it is dependent on the interval size), so long as the interval is contained in the distribution’s support.
It has a probability mass function is given by:
P(X=x)=1/b-a

EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution the mean or expected value of an exponentially distributed random variable X with rate parameter λ is given by. E(X)=1/λ,.
The exponential distribution is the only continuous probability distribution that has a constant failure rate.
P(X=x)= λe^-λx

SOLUTIONS
(i) Poisson probability distribution: A poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after a French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.
The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.
A Poisson distribution can be used to estimate how likely it is that something will happen “X” number of times. For example, if the average number of people who buy cheeseburgers from a fast-food chain on a Friday night at a single restaurant location is 200, a Poisson distribution can answer questions such as, “What is the probability that more than 300 people will buy burgers?” The application of the Poisson distribution thereby enables managers to introduce optimal scheduling systems that would not work with, say, a normal distribution.

b. Uniform probability distribution: The uniform probability distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. Put in another way, the uniform probability distribution is a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. There are two types of uniform distributions: discrete and continuous. The possible results of rolling a die provide an example of a discrete uniform distribution: it is possible to roll a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, but it is not possible to roll a 2.3, 4.7, or 5.5.
Some of the things to note about uniform probability are as follows: Uniform distributions are probability distributions with equally likely outcomes.
In a discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability.
In a continuous uniform distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite.
In a normal distribution, data around the mean occur more frequently.
The frequency of occurrence decreases the farther you are from the mean in a normal distribution

C. Exponential probability distribution: The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.
Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts.

To get this we use the hyper geometric distribution. Thus, P(X=4 doctors and 3 nurses) N= 6+20=26 n= 7 r= 6 (i.e. success) N-r= 19 (i.e. success failure =26 6)
Using the hyper geometric formula: P(X=x)=(xr)(N-rn-x) (Nn) = P(X=4 doctors and 3 nurses = (46)(319) (726)
=6C10 x 19C3 26C7
=15 x 969 657800 =0.0221

This means that the failure of a female celebrity to getting married will occur seven times before she finally gets married on the eight trial. Thus using the geometric formula below, we calculate.
P(X=x) = P(1-P)x or Pqx where x=0,1,2,
P= Probability of success on trial x= Number of failure q= Probability of event not occurring
Thus, our output is as follows: x=7 q= 0.65 (i.e. 1-0.35) P=0.35 Thus, P=(X=7) = 0.35 x (0.65)7 = 0.35 x 0.04902 = 0.0176
Given output: e= 2.71828 x=0 & 7 λ=? In order to find our Lamba (λ), we have to find the proportion of making a dozen of chocolate and approximate to the nearest whole number. Thus, λ= 50÷12 = 4.167 = 4 to the nearest whole number. λ= 4
Using the poisson’s formula when the probability that it contains o chips we have: e-λ λx x!
we have: (2.71828)-4 x (4)0 0!
= 0.01832 x 1 1 = 0.01832
The probability that it contain seven chips we have: e-λ λx x! (2.71828)-4 x (4)7 7! = 0.01832 x 16384 5040 = 300.15488 5040 =0.0596

Types of probability distribution

Exponential Distribution
the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. It is usually presented when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing early on e.g news blog

The Uniform Distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it, uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The uniform distribution can be visualized as a straight horizontal line, so for a coin flip returning a head or tail, both have a probability p = 0.50 and would be depicted by a line from the y-axis at 0.50.

Poisson Distribution
Poisson distribution, in statistics, a distribution function useful for characterizing events with very low probabilities of occurrence within some definite time or space. It is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution and is used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate. It was named after French mathematician Simeon Denis.
It can be applied when:
You wish to count the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity.
The number of events that occur in one area of opportunity is independent of the number of events that occur in other areas of opportunity
The probability that two or ore events occur in an area of opportunity approaches zero as the area of opportunity becomes smaller
It can be mathematically represented as;
P(X=x) =
Where x = number of events in an area of opportunity.
Λ = expected number of events.
e = base of the natural logarithm system
mean µ = λ
variance = λ
standard deviation =

Poisson Probability Distribution

This is a discrete distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if their events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event. The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.
Poisson distribution is also used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. Examples include: the number of scratches in a car’s paint, the number of mosquito bites on a person e.t.c.
Poisson Distribution Formula = P(x=x) =(e^(-⋋) ⋋^x)/X!

Uniform Probability Distribution
This is a continuous probability distribution and it is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.
This means that the probability of each occurring is the same. As one of the simplest possible distributions, the uniform distribution is sometimes used as the null hypothesis, or initial hypothesis in hypothesis testing. The notation for the uniform distribution is X~U(a,b) when a =lowest value of X and b= the highest value of X. the probability density function is f(x) = Ib-a; for a≤x≤b

Exponential Probability Distribution
This is the probability distribution of the time between events in a poisson point process, i.e, a process in which the events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particularcase of the gamma distribution. This is also a continuous distribution that is commonly used to measure the expected time for an event to occur.

1. Write short notes on:
*Poisson Probability Distribution*
The Poisson distribution is a discrete probability function that means the variable can only take specific values in a given list of numbers, probably infinite. A Poisson distribution measures how many times an event is likely to occur within “x” period of time. In other words, we can define it as the probability distribution that results from the Poisson experiment. A Poisson experiment is a statistical experiment that classifies the experiment into two categories, such as success or failure. Poisson distribution is a limiting process of the binomial distribution.
*Uniform Probability Distribution*
The Uniform distribution is the simplest probability distribution, but it plays an important role in statistics since it is very useful in modeling random variables. The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur.
*Exponential Probability Distribution*
The exponential distribution is a right-skewed continuous probability distribution that models variables in which small values occur more frequently than higher values. Small values have relatively high probabilities, which consistently decline as data values increase. Statisticians use the exponential distribution to model the amount of change in people’s pockets, the length of phone calls, and sales totals for customers. In all these cases, small values are more likely than larger values.

Exponential Distribution
The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. We will now mathematically define the exponential distribution, and derive its mean and expected value. Then we will develop the intuition for the distribution and discuss several interesting properties that it has.
An interesting property of the exponential distribution is that it can be viewed as a continuous analogue of the geometric distribution. To see this, recall the random experiment behind the geometric distribution: you toss a coin (repeat a Bernoulli experiment) until you observe the first heads (success). Now, suppose that the coin tosses are Δ seconds apart and in each toss the probability of success is p=Δλ. Also suppose that Δ is very small, so the coin tosses are very close together in time and the probability of success in each trial is very low. Let X be the time you observe the first success. We will show in the Solved Problems section that the distribution of X converges to Exponential (λ) as Δ approaches zero.
To get some intuition for this interpretation of the exponential distribution, suppose you are waiting for an event to happen. For example, you are at a store and are waiting for the next customer. In each millisecond, the probability that a new customer enters the store is very small. You can imagine that, in each millisecond, a coin (with a very small P(H)) is tossed, and if it lands heads a new customers enters. If you toss a coin every millisecond, the time until a new customer arrives approximately follows an exponential distribution.
The above interpretation of the exponential is useful in better understanding the properties of the exponential distribution. The most important of these properties is that the exponential distribution has less memory. To see this, think of an exponential random variable in the sense of tossing a lot of coins until observing the first heads. If we toss the coin several times and do not observe a heads, from now on it is like we start all over again. In other words, the failed coin tosses do not impact the distribution of waiting time from now on. The reason for this is that the coin tosses are independent. We can state this formally as follows:
P(X>x+a|X>a)=P(X>x).

Uniform Distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a
heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.
The uniform distribution can be visualized as a straight horizontal line, so for a coin flip returning a head or tail, both have a probability p = 0.50 and would be depicted by a line from the y-axis at 0.50.

POINTS
Uniform distributions are probability distributions with equally likely outcomes.
In a discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability.
In a continuous uniform distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite.
In a normal distribution, data around the mean occur more frequently.
The frequency of occurrence decreases the farther you are from the mean in a normal distribution.
Understanding Uniform Distribution
There are two types of uniform distributions: discrete and continuous. The possible results of rolling a die provide an example of a discrete uniform distribution: it is possible to roll a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, but it is not possible to roll a 2.3, 4.7, or 5.5. Therefore, the roll of a die generates a discrete distribution with p = 1/6 for each outcome. There are only 6 possible values to return and nothing in between.
The plotted results from rolling a single die will be discretely uniform, whereas the plotted results (averages) from rolling two or more dice will be normally distributed.
Some uniform distributions are continuous rather than discrete. An idealized random number generator would be considered a continuous uniform distribution. With this type of distribution, every point in the continuous range between 0.0 and 1.0 has an equal opportunity of appearing, yet there is an infinite number of points between 0.0 and 1.0.
There are several other important continuous distributions, such as the normal distribution, chi-square, and Student’s t-distribution.
There are also several data generating or data analyzing functions associated with distributions to help understand the variables and their variance within a data set. These functions include probability density function, cumulative density, and moment generating functions.

Poisson Distribution
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.
The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.
POINTS
A Poisson distribution, named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, can be used to estimate how many times an event is likely to occur within “X” periods of time.
Poisson distributions are used when the variable of interest is a discrete count variable.
Many economic and financial data appear as count variables, such as how many times a person becomes unemployed in a given year, thus lending themselves to analysis with a Poisson distribution.
Understanding Poisson Distributions
A Poisson distribution can be used to estimate how likely it is that something will happen “X” number of times. For example, if the average number of people who buy cheeseburgers from a fast-food chain on a Friday night at a single restaurant location is 200, a Poisson distribution can answer questions such as, “What is the probability that more than 300 people will buy burgers?” The application of the Poisson distribution thereby enables managers to introduce optimal scheduling systems that would not work with, say, a normal distribution.
One of the most famous historical, practical uses of the Poisson distribution was estimating the annual number of Prussian cavalry soldiers killed due to horse-kicks. Modern examples include estimating the number of car crashes in a city of a given size; in physiology, this distribution is often used to calculate the probabilistic frequencies of different types of neurotransmitter secretions. Or, if a video store averaged 400 customers every Friday night, what would have been the probability that 600 customers would come in on any given Friday night?

Answers to question 1: (I) Poisson Probability Distribution?
Poisson distribution is used when one is interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity.Poisson probability distribution is a discrete variable. Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.
Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.

USES OF POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
1)Poisson distributions are used by businessmen to make forecasts about the number of customers or sales on certain days or seasons of the year.
2)With the Poisson distribution, companies can adjust supply to demand in order to keep their business earning good profit. In addition, waste of resources is prevented.
3)By using this tool, businessmen are able to estimate the time when demand is unusually higher, so they can purchase more stock.
(II) The Uniform Probability Distribution
This is usually present when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing early on. The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.
Uniform distribution is a term used to describe a form of probability distribution where every possible outcome has an equal likelihood of happening. The probability is constant since each variable has equal chances of being the outcome.
Example of Uniform Distribution
If you stand on a street corner and start to randomly hand a \$100 bill to any lucky person who walked by, then every passerby would have an equal chance of being handed the money. The percentage of the probability is 1 divided by the total number of outcomes (number of passersby). However, if you favored short people or women, they would have a higher chance of being given the \$100 bill than the other passersby. It would not be described as uniform probability.
Types of Uniform Distribution
1) Discrete uniform distribution
In statistics and probability theory, a discrete uniform distribution is a statistical distribution where the probability of outcomes is equally likely and with finite values.
2)Continuous uniform distribution
Not all uniform distributions are discrete; some are continuous. A continuous uniform distribution (also referred to as rectangular distribution) is a statistical distribution with an infinite number of equally likely measurable values. Unlike discrete random variables, a continuous random variable can take any real value within a specified range.A continuous uniform distribution usually comes in a rectangular shape. A good example of a continuous uniform distribution is an idealized random number generator. With continuous uniform distribution, just like discrete uniform distribution, every variable has an equal chance of happening. However, there is an infinite number of points that can exist.
Mean (A + B)/2
Median (A + B)/2
Range B – A
Standard Deviation (B−A)212−−−−−√
Coefficient of Variation (B−A)3√(B+A)
Skewness 0
Kurtosis 9/5
(III) Exponential Probability distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.The exponential distribution refers to the continuous and constant probability distribution which is actually used to model the time period that a person needs to wait before the given event happens and this distribution is a continuous counterpart of a geometric distribution that is instead distinct.
A continuous random variable X is said to have an exponential distribution with parameter λ>0, shown as X∼Exponential(λ), if its PDF is given by
fX(x)={λe−λx0x>0otherwise.
N=26,n=7,x=(4 doctors and 3 nurses),r=6

Write short notes on the following types
of probability distribution:
a. Poisson probability distribution
b. Uniform probability distribution
c. Exponential probability distribution
Poisson probability distribution:
Poisson distribution is a probability
distribution that is used to
show how many times an event is likely
to occur over a specified period. In
other words, it is a count
distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent
events that occur at a constant rate
within a given interval of time.
The Poisson distribution is a discrete
function, meaning that the variable
can only take specific
values in a (potentially infinite) list.
Put differently, the variable cannot
take all values in any
continuous range. For the Poisson
distribution (a discrete distribution), the
variable can only take the
values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions
or decimals.
The Formula for the Poisson
Distribution given as: P(X=x)=
�−λ .λ � Where:
e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
x is the number of occurrences
x! is the factorial of x
λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of
x when that is also equal to its variance
Uniform Probability Distribution:
The uniform distribution is a continuous
probability distribution
and is concerned with events that are
equally likely to occur. When working
out problems that have a uniform
distribution, be careful to note if the
data is inclusive or exType equation
here.clusive.
It is also a term used to describe a form
of probability distribution where every
possible outcome has an equal likelihood of happening. The
probability is constant since each
variable has equal chances of being the
outcome.
The notation for the uniform
distribution is X ~ U (a, b)
where a = the lowest value of x and b =
the highest value of x.
There are two types of uniform
distribution:
➢ Discrete uniform distribution
➢ Continuous uniform distribution
Discrete uniform distributions: These
have a finite number of outcomes.
Continuous uniform distribution:
This is a statistical distribution with
an infinite number of
equally likely measurable values.
Exponential probability
distribution: The exponential
distribution is often concerned with the
amount of time until some specific
event occurs. For example, the amount
of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an
exponential distribution. Other
examples include the length of time,
telephone calls, and the amount of
time, in months, a car
battery lasts. Exponential distributions
are commonly used in calculations of
product reliability, or
the length of time a product last.
The formula for the exponential

1a Poisson Distribution
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The Poisson Distribution formula is: P(x; μ) = (e-μ) (μx) / x!
Where,
e is the base of the logarithm
x is a Poisson random variable
λ is an average rate of value

1b. A uniform distribution, also called a rectangular distribution, is a probability distribution that has constant probability. The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur.
This distribution is defined by two parameters, a and b:

a is the minimum.
b is the maximum.
The distribution is written as U(a, b).

1c. Probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution that often concerns the amount of time until some specific event happens. It is a process in which events happen continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential distribution has the key property of being memoryless. The exponential random variable can be either more small values or fewer larger variables. For example, the amount of money spent by the customer on one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution.
Exponential Distribution Formula
Exponential distribution formula. The main formulas used for analysis of exponential distribution let you find the probability of time between two events being lower or higher than x: P(x>X) = exp(-a*x) P(x≤X) = 1 – exp(-a*x)

151. What is poisson probability distribution: it is used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. The area of opportunity is a continuous unit or interval of time such area in which more than one occurrence of an event occurs.
Examples
Number of scratches in a car’s paint
Number of mosquito bites on a person.

Uniform probability distribution:

Exponential probability distribution: is usually present when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing. E.g news blog

1a. Poisson probability distribution is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution and are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It is also a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals. The Formula for the Poisson Distribution Is
f(x) = P(X=x) = (e-λ λx )/x!
Where:
• e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
• x is the number of occurrences
• x! is the factorial of x
• λ is equal to an average rate of the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance
The Poisson distribution is also the limit of a binomial distribution, for which the probability of success for each trial equals λ divided by the number of trials, as the number of trials approaches infinity.

1b.Uniform probability Distribution is a term used to describe a form of probability distribution where every possible outcome has an equal likelihood of happening. The probability is constant since each variable has equal chances of being the outcome. A continuous uniform distribution (also referred to as rectangular distribution) is a statistical distribution with an infinite number of equally likely measurable values. It usually comes in a rectangular shape.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.

1c.Exponential probability distribution
The exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events.

In other words, it is a count distribution and are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It is also a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals. The Formula for the Poisson Distribution Is
f(x) = P(X=x) = (e-λ λx )/x!
Where:
• e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
• x is the number of occurrences
• x! is the factorial of x
• λ is equal to an average rate of the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance
The Poisson distribution is also the limit of a binomial distribution, for which the probability of success for each trial equals λ divided by the number of trials, as the number of trials approaches infinity.

1b.Uniform probability Distribution is a term used to describe a form of probability distribution where every possible outcome has an equal likelihood of happening. The probability is constant since each variable has equal chances of being the outcome. A continuous uniform distribution (also referred to as rectangular distribution) is a statistical distribution with an infinite number of equally likely measurable values. It usually comes in a rectangular shape.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.

1c.Exponential probability distribution
The exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events.

2. P(X=4 doctors and 3 nurses), N=26, n=7, r=6
Using hyper geometric formula,
P(X=4 doctors 3 nurses)= [6C4 × (26-6)C(7-4)] ÷ (26C7)
=[15×1140]÷ (657800)
= 0.025995743

3. P(X=x)= p(1-p)^x or pq^x
Using geometric approach,
Where, p= 0.35 and x= 8-1=7
Let x be the number of relationship before the marriage
P(X=7)= 0.35×(1-0.35)^7
=0.35×(0.65)^7
=0.35×0.049022278
=0.017157797

4. f(x) = P(X=x) = (e^-λ* λ^x )/x!
Using poisson formula,
Where, e=2.7183, λ= 50÷12= 4.167and x= number of occurrence
a. P(X=0)= [(4.167^0)× 2.7183^(-4.167)] ÷ 0!
= 0.015498254
b. P(X=7)= [(4.167^7)×(2.7183^-4.167)]÷ 7!
= [(21815.46644)×(0.015498254)] ÷ 5040
=338.1016571÷5040

1. Exponential Distribution
This is a probability of time between events in a Poisson process. A process in which events occur continously and independently at a constant average rate it has the memory less. We can state this formally as follows:
P(X>x+a|X>a)=P(X>x).
2. Uniform Distribution
This refers to a probability in which outcomes are equally a like. There are 2 kinds of probability they are: Discreet probability and Continous probability.

4. POISSION PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
This is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to happen in a give period. The Poisson distribution is a discrete function meaning that the variable can only take specified season in a list. It was named after a French mathematian SIMEON DENIS. Values like 0,1,2,3 or with no fractions or decimals.

Write short notes on the following:-

A. Poisson probability Distribution is a discrete frequency distribution which gives the probability of a number of independent events occuring at a fixed time. Poisson distribution unlike binomial has to do with rate, frequency and time. It is one of the distributions for discrete variables.
A poisson distribution can also be referred to as a tool that helps to predict the probability of certain events happening when you know how often the event has occured.It gives the probability of a given number of events happening in a fixed interval of time. It is used to describe the distribution of rare events in a large population.
For Example:- In a cafe, the customer arrives at a mean rate of 2 per min. What is the probability of arrival of 5 customers in one minute using the poisson distribution.

B. Uniform probability Distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within its uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart,a club,a diamond or a spade is equally likely.In probability theory or statistics,the continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.

C. Exponential probability Distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. An interesting property of the exponential distribution is that it can be viewed as a continuous analogue of the geometric distribution.

2. Six (6) doctors and twenty (20) nurses attend a small conference. All 26 names are put in a hat, and 7 names are selected without replacement. What is the probability that 4 doctors and 3 nurses are picked?
Solution:-
P(X=x)= r N-r x n-x N n
N = 6+20 = 26
r = 6
n = 7
x = 4
P(X=4) = 6 26-6 4 7-4 26 7
P(X=4) = 6C4 X 20C3 ÷ 26C7
P(X=4) = 15X1140÷657800
P(X=4) = 17100÷657800= 0.0025995743= 0.0260. 4dp3.

2. Using the geometric approach, suppose that the probability of female celebrity getting married is 0.35, find the probability that she wll actually get married in her 8th relationship.
Solution:-
P(X=x)=Pqx P= 0.35q= 1-p, 1-0.35= 0.65 x= 8-1= 7 (number of failures)
P(X=7) = 0.35x(0.65)7= 0.017157=0.017157×100= 1.7% chance.4.

a) No chocolate chips:-
Solution:-
P(X=x) = e-ƛƛx/x!ƛ = 50/12 = 4 (to the nearest whole number)
P(X=0) = e-4(4)0/0! = 0.0183.

Poisson distribution formula: P(X=x)= e^-λ. λ^x / x!
(b.) The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. The data used in uniform distribution can be inclusive or exclusive. In a continuous discrete uniform probability distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.
Uniform distribution formula: F(x)= 1/ b-a
(c.) Exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution that often concerns the amount of time until some specific event happens. It is a process in which events happen continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential distribution has the key property of being memoryless. The exponential random variable can be either more small values or fewer larger variables. For example, the amount of money spent by the customer on one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution.

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.

CONTINUOUS UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
In probability theory and statistics, the continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.[1] The bounds are defined by the parameters, a and b, which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be closed (e.g. [a, b]) or open (e.g. (a, b)). Therefore, the distribution is often abbreviated U (a, b), where U stands for uniform distribution. The difference between the bounds defines the interval length; all intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support are equally probable. It is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a random variable X under no constraint other than that it is contained in the distribution’s support.
EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
The exponential distribution is a continuous distribution that is commonly used to measure the expected time for an event to occur. For example, in physics it is often used to measure radioactive decay, in engineering it is used to measure the time associated with receiving a defective part on an assembly line, and in finance it is often used to measure the likelihood of the next default for a portfolio of financial assets. It can also be used to measure the likelihood of incurring a specified number of defaults within a specified time period.

1.Write short notes on the following types of probability distributions
a. Poission probability distribution
Poisson distribution is used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity. An area of opportunity is a continuous unit or interval of time, volume or such area more than one occurrence of an event can occur. is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. Poisson distribution can be used to estimate how likely it is that something will happen “X” number of times.
Poisson distribution Formula
P(X=x) = e-λ. λx/x!
Where e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
x is the number of occurrences or number of events in an area of opportunity.
x! is the factorial of x
λ is equal to the expected value or expected number of events(EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance
b. Uniform Probability Distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. Under a uniform distribution, each value in the set of possible values has the same possibility of happening.A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.Uniform distribution is a probability distribution that asserts that the outcomes for a discrete set of data have the same probability.
In a discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability.In a continuous uniform distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite.In a normal distribution, data around the mean occur more frequently.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.
The probability density function is f(x)=
1/b−a for a ≤ x ≤ b.
c. Exponential Probability Distribution.
The exponential distributidon is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs.Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts.Values for an exponential random variable occur in the following way. There are fewer large values and more small values. For example, the amount of money customers spend in one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution. There are more people who spend small amounts of money and fewer people who spend large amounts of money.
2. Using the hypergeometric method to solve the equation
Formula isP(X=x) = [rCx] [N-rn-x] ÷[NCn]
Where x= number of successes in the number of trials n
N= total number of elements in the population
r= number of successes in the population
N-r = numbe of failures in the population
n= number of trials(sample size)
N= 6+20=26 r=6 n=7 x=4 N-r =20. n-x=3
6C4*20C3÷26C7. = 15*1,140÷675,800
= 17,100÷675,800
=0.025303
3. Using the geometric distribution method
P(X=x) = P(1-P) raise to power x or pqraise to power x
P =0.35. ( 1-P) =1-0.35=0.65
x will be the number of her relationships before marriage
P(X=7) = (0.35*(0.65)*7
= 0.35*0.049022 = 0.01757
4. Using the Poisson distribution method
P(X=x) = e-λ. λx/x!
Where e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)x is the number of occurrences or number of events in an area of opportunity.
x! is the factorial of x
λ is equal to the expected value or expected number of events(EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance
λ to the nearest whole number = 50÷12= 4.166= 4
For no cholocate: x=0
e raise to the power of -4*4raise to power 0÷0!
= 0.0183*1÷1= 0.0183
For 7 chocolate chips;x=7
λ= 4 = 0.0183 *4raise to power 7÷ 7!
=0.0183*16,384÷5,040
=299.8272÷5040
= 0.05948

1i) Poisson Probability Distribution
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. … The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.
The Poisson distribution, named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, can be used to estimate how many times an event is likely to occur within “X” periods of time.
Poisson distributions are used when the variable of interest is a discrete count variable.
Many economic and financial data appear as count variables, such as how many times a person becomes unemployed in a given year, thus lending themselves to analysis with a Poisson distribution.
The Formula for the Poisson Distribution Is
P(X=x)=λ^x.e^-λ /x!
Where:

e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
x is the number of occurrences
x! is the factorial of x
λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance

1ii) Uniform Probability Distribution
statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same. The uniform distribution can be visualized as a straight horizontal line, so for a coin flip returning a head or tail, both have a probability p = 0.50 and would be depicted by a line from the y-axis at 0.50.
Uniform distributions are probability distributions with equally likely outcomes.In a discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability.In a continuous uniform distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite.
In a normal distribution, data around the mean occur more frequently.
The frequency of occurrence decreases the farther you are from the mean in a normal distribution.
Understanding Uniform Distribution
There are two types of uniform distributions: discrete and continuous. The possible results of rolling a die provide an example of a discrete uniform distribution: it is possible to roll a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, but it is not possible to roll a 2.3, 4.7, or 5.5. Therefore, the roll of a die generates a discrete distribution with p = 1/6 for each outcome. There are only 6 possible values to return and nothing in between
Types of Uniform Probability Distribution
1) Discrete distribution
2) Continuous distribution
1 Discrete uniform distribution
In statistics and probability theory, a discrete uniform distribution is a statistical distribution where the probability of outcomes is equally likely and with finite values. A good example of a discrete uniform distribution would be the possible outcomes of rolling a 6-sided die. The possible values would be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. In this case, each of the six numbers has an equal chance of appearing. Therefore, each time the 6-sided die is thrown, each side has a chance of 1/6.
number of values is finite. It is impossible to get a value of 1.3, 4.2, or 5.7 when rolling a fair die. However, if another die is added and they are both thrown, the distribution that results is no longer uniform because the probability of the sums is not equal. Another simple example is the probability distribution of a coin being flipped. The possible outcomes in such a scenario can only be two. Therefore, the finite value is 2.
2 Continuous uniform distribution
Not all uniform distributions are discrete; some are continuous. A continuous uniform distribution (also referred to as rectangular distribution) is a statistical distribution with an infinite number of equally likely measurable values. Unlike discrete random variables, a continuous random variable can take any real value within a specified range.

A continuous uniform distribution usually comes in a rectangular shape. A good example of a continuous uniform distribution is an idealized random number generator. With continuous uniform distribution, just like discrete uniform distribution, every variable has an equal chance of happening. However, there is an infinite number of points that can exist

​The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x. The probability density function is f(x)=1b−a f ( x ) = 1 b − a for a ≤ x ≤ b.
1iii) Exponential Probability Distribution
In Probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution that often concerns the amount of time until some specific event happens. It is a process in which events happen continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential distribution has the key property of being memoryless. The exponential random variable can be either more small values or fewer larger variables. For example, the amount of money spent by the customer on one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution.
The exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution used to model the time elapsed before a given event occurs.Sometimes it is also called negative exponential distribution.
The exponential distribution is often used to answer in probabilistic terms questions such as:How much time will elapse before an earthquake occurs in a given region?How long do we need to wait until a customer enters our shop? How long will it take before a call center receives the next phone call? How long will a piece of machinery work without breaking down?
All these questions concern the time we need to wait before a given event occurs. If this waiting time is unknown, it is often appropriate to think of it as a random variable having an exponential distribution

P(X=4 doctors 3 nurses)= [6C4 × (26-6)C(7-4)] ÷ (26C7)

=0.35×(0.65)^7
=0.35×0.049022278
=0.017157797

4. f(x) = P(X=x) = (e^-λ* λ^x )/x!
Using poisson formula,
Where, e=2.7183, λ= 50÷12= 4.167and x= number of occurrence
a. P(X=0)= [(4.167^0)× 2.7183^(-4.167)] ÷ 0!
= 0.015498254
b. P(X=7)= [(4.167^7)×(2.7183^-4.167)]÷ 7!
= [(21815.46644)×(0.015498254)] ÷ 5040
=338.1016571÷5040
=0.067

A: POISSON DISTRIBUTION
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. Poisson distribution is also applied when we want to ascertain the number of times an event occurs in a given area if opportunity.
The formular for Poisson distribution can be written as:
f(x;μ)= (μ^x°e^−μ)/x!
where x=0, 1, … represents the discrete random variable, such as ADC counts recorded by a detection system, and μ>0 is the mean.

B: THE UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.
The probability density function is
f(x)=1/b−a
for a ≤ x ≤ b.
For this example, X ~ U(0, 23) and
f(x)=1/23−0
for 0 ≤ X ≤ 23.
Formulas for the theoretical mean and standard deviation are
μ = a+b/2 and σ = √(b−a)^2/12

C: THE EXPONENTIAL DISTRIBUTION
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.
Values for an exponential random variable occur in the following way. There are fewer large values and more small values. For example, the amount of money customers spend in one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution. There are more people who spend small amounts of money and fewer people who spend large amounts of money.
Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts.
The distribution notation is X ~ Exp(m). Therefore, X ~ Exp(0.25).
The probability density function is f(x) = me–mx. The number e = 2.71828182846… It is a number that is used often in mathematics. Scientific calculators have the key “ex.” If you enter one for x, the calculator will display the value

(rCx * N-RCn-x)/NCn
P = (6C6*20C1)/26C7
P= 20/657800= 0.0000304

3.solution:
P(X=7) = 0.35*(1-0.35)^7
= 0.0172

4. Solution:
P(X=0) = e^-50 *(50)^0/0!
=1.928[×10^-22]…………1
P(X=7)= e^-50 * 50^7/7!
=2.988[×10^-14]…………..2
From the results above 1 and 2 shows that the answer are in binary forms.

1a. Poisson Distribution: This is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In other words, it is used when you are interested in the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity(i.e a continous unit, internaval of time, volume or any area where an event occurs more than once).
In finance, the poisson distribution could be used to model the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues. In this case, the poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates.

1b. Uniform Distribution: This is a type of continous probability distribution. It refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. For example, if you randomly approach a person and try to guess his/her birthday, the probability of his/her birthday falling exactly on the date you have guessed follows a uniform distribution. This is because every day of the year has equal chances of being his/her birthday or every day of the year is equally likely to be his/her birthday.
Uniform probability distribution is also called a rectangular distribution. Its distribution is defined by two parameters; a and b. Where a is the minimum and b is the maximum, written as: U(a,b). However, there are two types of uniform probability distribution; continous and discrete uniform probability distributions.

1c. Exponential Distribution: This is a type of continous probability distribution. It is defind as the probability distribution of time between events in the poisson point process. It is concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length of time, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts.
The exponential distribution can be said to be the contious analogue of the geometric distribution. It is one of the widely used continous distribution.

2. Using the hypergeometric distribution;
P(X=x) = ( r combination x × N – r combination n – x )/ N combination n .
Where;
N = 26
n = 7
r = 6
Therefore;
i. P(X = 4) = (6 com. 4 × 26 – 6 com. 7- 4) / 26 com. 7
= (6 com. 4 × 20 com. 3 )/ 26 com. 7
= (15 × 1140)/657800
= 17100/657800
= 0.026
Hence, P(X = 4) = 0.026
ii. P(X = 3) = (6 com. 3 × 20 com. 4)/ 26 com. 7
= (20 × 4845)/657800
= 96900/657800
= 0.147
Hence, P(X = 3) = 0.147

3. Using the geometric distribution;
P(X = x) = P(1 – P)^x
Where;
P = 0.35
1 – P = 0.65
Therefore;
P(X = 7) = 0.35(0.65)^7
= 0.35(0.0490)
= 0.01715
Hence, P(X = 7) = 0.01715

4. Using poisson distribution;
P(X=x)=(λ^x × e^-λ)/x!
Where;
λ = 12
Therefore;
i. P(X = 0) = 12^0 × e^-12/0!
= 0.000006144
ii. P(X = 7) = (12^7 × e^-12)/7!
= 0.04368
Hence, P(X = 7) = 0.04368

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
A Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals. The Poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution for the counts of events that occur randomly in a given interval of time (or space). If we let X = the number of events in a given interval. Then, if the mean number of events per interval is λ the probability of observing x events in a given interval is given by
P(X = x) = e−λ λ/ x!
• e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
• x is the number of occurrences
• x! is the factorial of x
• λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance.

UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds. The bounds are defined by the parameters, a and b, which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be closed (e.g. [a, b]) or open (e.g. (a, b) . Therefore, the distribution is often abbreviated U (a, b), where U stands for uniform distribution. The difference between the bounds defines the interval length; all intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support are equally probable. It is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a random variable X under no constraint other than that it is contained in the distribution’s support.

EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
A Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals. The Poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution for the counts of events that occur randomly in a given interval of time (or space). If we let X = the number of events in a given interval. Then, if the mean number of events per interval is λ the probability of observing x events in a given interval is given by
P(X = x) = e−λ λ/ x!
• e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
• x is the number of occurrences
• x! is the factorial of x
• λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance.

UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds. The bounds are defined by the parameters, a and b, which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be closed (e.g. [a, b]) or open (e.g. (a, b) . Therefore, the distribution is often abbreviated U (a, b), where U stands for uniform distribution. The difference between the bounds defines the interval length; all intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support are equally probable. It is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a random variable X under no constraint other than that it is contained in the distribution’s support.

EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memory less. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes.

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION is a discrete probability distribution that is used when you are interested on the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity is a continuous unit or interval of time, volume or such area in which more than one occurrence of an event can occur. Here, there can be unlimited number of possible outcomes unlike in binomial distribution where we have only two possible outcomes.

UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION is a continuous probability distribution that is distributed on interval. It has special use in rounding errors when measurement are recorded to some degree of accuracy. The application of this distribution is based on the assumption that the probability of falling in an interval of fixed length within (α, ß) is constant.

EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION is a random variable x is said to have an exponential distribution with parameter ß if the probability density of x is defined by f(x) = (e^x/ ß )/ ß x>0. Exponential distribution is used in practical problem to represent the distribution of time that elapse before the occurrence of some event, for instance, the time required to serve a customer at some service facility

*Poisson Probability Distribution*
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates.
*Uniform Probability Distribution*
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive of endpoints.
*Exponential Probability Distribution*
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length of time, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts.

In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The formula is stated below:
{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }
where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)
x is the number of events in an area of opportunity
x! is the factorial of x

b) Uniform probability distribution:
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is:

The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. … The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. It is denoted as
P(X = x) = e−λ λ/ x!
• e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
• x is the number of occurrences
• x! is the factorial of x
• λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance.

UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In statistics, in uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely.

EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate.

1a) Poisson probability distribution: The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates. Poisson distributions are very useful for smart order routers and algorithmic trading. The formula is stated below:
{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }
where, e is the base of the natural logarithm system (2.71828..)
x is the number of events in an area of opportunity
x! is the factorial of x
λ is the expected number of events
The mean = λ
The variance = λ
The standard deviation = λ0.5
b) Uniform probability distribution: The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive. The formula is: { Px = 1 / n }
where, Px = probability of a discrete value n = number of values in the range
c) Exponential probability distribution: The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time from now until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Exponential distributions are commonly used in calculations of product reliability, or the length of time a product lasts. The formula is stated below:
{ f(x)= λe- λx }
The mean = 1/ λ
The variance =1/ λ2
The standard deviation =(1/ λ^2)^0.5

2) P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses) N=6+20=26 n=7, r=6 P(X=x)= ( rCx * N-rCn-x ) / NCn P(x=4 doctors and 3 nurses) = ( 6C4 * 20C3 ) / 26C7 =( 15 *1140 ) / 657800 = 0.02599574339

CONTINUOUS UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.
Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.
P(X=x) = ℮ˉ۶ ٨͋/x! x = 0, 1, 2 …n

CONTINUOUS UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
In probability theory and statistics, the continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.[1] The bounds are defined by the parameters, a and b, which are the minimum and maximum values. The interval can either be closed (e.g. [a, b]) or open (e.g. (a, b)). Therefore, the distribution is often abbreviated U (a, b), where U stands for uniform distribution. The difference between the bounds defines the interval length; all intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support are equally probable. It is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a random variable X under no constraint other than that it is contained in the distribution’s support.
P(X=x) = 1/n x = 1,2, …,n
EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
The exponential distribution is a continuous distribution that is commonly used to measure the expected time for an event to occur. For example, in physics it is often used to measure radioactive decay, in engineering it is used to measure the time associated with receiving a defective part on an assembly line, and in finance it is often used to measure the likelihood of the next default for a portfolio of financial assets. It can also be used to measure the likelihood of incurring a specified number of defaults within a specified time period.

In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson. The probability density function is given as;

{ P(X=x) = (λxe-λ) / x! }

where, e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)

x is the number of occurrences

x! is the factorial of x

λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance

The mean = λ

The variance = λ

The standard deviation = λ0.5

b) Uniform probability distribution:

In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same. The probability density function is given as:

{ Px = 1 / n }

where, Px = probability of a discrete value

n = number of values in the range

The mean = 0

The variance = 1

The standard deviation = 1

c) Exponential probability distribution:

In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes, it is found in various other contexts. The probability density function is given as;

{ f(x)= λe- λx }

The mean = 1/ λ

The variance =1/ λ2

The standard deviation =(1/ λ2)0.5

Poisson probability distribution shows that poisson random variablewarise frequently in counting number of events in a given interval office or space. Let x be a discrete random variable representing the frequency of occurence of an event in a non overlapping interval of time or space. Then X is said to have a poisson distribution with some parameters if the probability mass function of X is P(X=x).

Uniform probability distribution is a type of distribution in which all the outcomes are equally likely. A deck of card has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a spade are equally likely. It is called a rectangular distribution and there is a constant probability.

Exponential probability distribution has to do with time between 2 events in a poisson point process. A process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of gamma distribution .

A; Poisson Distribution;
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period.

B; The Uniform Distribution
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.
The notation for the uniform distribution is X ~ U(a, b) where a = the lowest value of x and b = the highest value of x.
The probability density function is f(x)=1b−af(x)=1b−a for a ≤ x ≤ b.

C;. The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.
Values for an exponential random variable occur in the following way. There are fewer large values and more small values. For example, the amount of money customers spend in one trip to the supermarket follows an exponential distribution. There are more people who spend small amounts of money and fewer people who spend large amounts of money.
The exponential distribution is widely used in the field of reliability. Reliability deals with the amount of time a product lasts.

1 a] Poisson probability distribution
A Poisson distribution, named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, can be used to estimate how many times an event is likely to occur within “X” periods of time. A Poisson distribution is a tool that helps to predict the probability of certain events happening when you know how often the event has occurred. It gives us the probability of a given number of events happening in a fixed interval of time. In Poisson distribution, lambda is the average rate of value for a function.
b] Uniform probability distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. There are two types of uniform distributions: discrete and continuous.
Discrete uniform distribution: In statistics and probability theory, a discrete uniform distribution is a statistical distribution where the probability of outcomes is equally likely and with finite values. A good example of a discrete uniform distribution would be the possible outcomes of rolling a 6-sided die. The possible values would be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. In this case, each of the six numbers has an equal chance of appearing. Therefore, each time the 6-sided die is thrown, each side has a chance of 1/6.
Continuous uniform distribution: Not all uniform distributions are discrete; some are continuous. A continuous uniform distribution (also referred to as rectangular distribution) is a statistical distribution with an infinite number of equally likely measurable values.
The formula for a discrete uniform distribution
Px = 1/n​
where:
Px=Probability of a discrete value
n=Number of values in the range
c] Exponential probability distribution
The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.

TYPES OF UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
1. Discrete uniform probability distribution
2. Continuous uniform probability distribution

discrete probability distribution, The possible results of rolling a die provide an example of a discrete uniform distribution: it is possible to roll a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, but it is not possible to roll a 2.3, 4.7, or 5.5. Therefore, the roll of a die generates a discrete distribution with p = 1/6 for each outcome. There are only 6 possible values to return and nothing in between
Continuous uniform probability distribution, An idealized random number generator would be considered a continuous uniform distribution. With this type of distribution, every point in the continuous range between 0.0 and 1.0 has an equal opportunity of appearing, yet there is an infinite number of points between 0.0 and 1.0.
FORMULAR FOR UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
P(x) = 1/ (B-A) for A≤ x ≤B.
“A” is the location parameter: The location parameter tells you where the center of the graph is.
“B” is the scale parameter : The scale parameter stretches the graph out on the horizontal axis.
MEAN P(X) = (b + a) / 2.
“a” in the formula is the minimum value in the distribution,
and “b” is the maximum value.
The variance of a uniform random variable is:
VAR(x) = (1/12)(b-a) 2

EXPONENTIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
Exponential distribution is usually use when dealing with event that are rapidly changing early on for. Example news blog.
The exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution used to model the time elapsed before a given event occurs.Just like Poisson they both measure time of occurance of an event but the difference is that in Poisson,it measure the unit of time while exponential measure the time elapsed before a given event occurs.
RELATION BETWEEN POISSON DISTRIBUTION AND EXPONENTIAL
Suppose that An event can occur more than once;
The time elapsed between two successive occurrences is exponentially distributed and independent of previous occurrences.
The number of occurrences of the event within a given unit of time has a Poisson distribution.

The exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution used to model the time elapsed before a given event occurs.Just like Poisson they both measure time of occurance of an event but the difference is that in Poisson,it measure the unit of time while exponential measure the time elapsed before a given event occurs.
RELATION BETWEEN POISSON DISTRIBUTION AND EXPONENTIAL
Suppose that An event can occur more than once;
The time elapsed between two successive occurrences is exponentially distributed and independent of previous occurrences.
The number of occurrences of the event within a given unit of time has a Poisson distribution.

Write short notes on the following types of probability distributions:

Poisson probability distribution: it is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. It is a discrete function meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list Examples include number of mosquito bite on person,number of car accidents over a certain range of a road, number of computer crashes in a day etc.
Uniform probability distribution: it is also known as Continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution.Uniform probability distribution are probability distribution with equally likely outcome. It is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
Exponential probability distribution: it is a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process.

1a) Poisson Probability Distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution French pronunciation: ​named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event.[1] The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.

b) Uniform Probability Distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.The uniform distribution can be visualized as a straight horizontal line, so for a coin flip returning a head or tail, both have a probability p = 0.50 and would be depicted by a line from the y-axis at 0.50.
c) Exponential Probability Distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.The exponential distribution is not the same as the class of exponential families of distributions, which is a large class of probability distributions that includes the exponential distribution as one of its members, but also includes the normal distribution, binomial distribution, gamma distribution, Poisson, and many others.

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION: is a type of discrete probability distribution that is used when you are interested on the number of times an event occurs in a given area of opportunity is a continuous unit or interval of time, volume or such area in which more than one occurrence of an event can occur. Here, there can be unlimited number of possible outcomes unlike in binomial distribution where we have only two possible outcomes.
FORMULA: (PX=x) = e^-ᨂ* ᨂ^x/x!

UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION: is a type of continuous probability distribution that is distributed on interval. It has special use in rounding errors when measurement are recorded to some degree of accuracy. The application of this distribution is based on the assumption that the probability of falling in an interval of fixed length within (α, ß) is constant.
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memory less.

2i) Using Hypergeometric distribution:
Where
r = 6
n = 7
N = 26
X = 4

P(X-x)= [rʗx]*[N-rʗ n-x]/[Nʗn]
[6ʗ4]*[26-6ʗ7-4]/[26ʗ7]
[6ʗ4]*[20ʗ3]/[26ʗ7]
=0.02599574339
ii)
Where
r = 6
n = 7
N = 26
X = 3

P(X-x)= [rʗx]*[N-rʗ n-x]/[Nʗn]
[6ʗ3]*[26-6ʗ7-3]/[26ʗ7]
[6ʗ3]*[20ʗ4]/[26ʗ7]
=0.1473092125

3) PQX
Where P = 0.35
q = 1- P = 1- 0.35 = 0.65
x = 7
= 0.35 * 0.657
= 0.35 * 0.0490222789062
= 0.0171577976171

4) ƛx e-x
X!
Where ƛ =50/12 =4
e = 2.7183
X= 0
40 x 2.7183-4 1 x 0.0183 = 0.0183
0! 1
Where ƛ =4
e = 2.7183
X= 7
47 x 2.7183-4 16384 x 0.0183 = 299.8272

1a Poisson probability distribution :
The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution that measures the probability of a given number of events happening in a specified time period. In finance, the Poisson distribution could be used to model the arrival of new buy or sell orders entered into the market or the expected arrival of orders at specified trading venues or dark pools. In these cases, the Poisson distribution is used to provide expectations surrounding confidence bounds around the expected order arrival rates.
The Poisson Distribution is: P(x; μ) = (e-μ * μx) / x!
Where:
The symbol “!” is a factorial.
μ (the expected number of occurrences) is sometimes written as λ. Sometimes called the event rate or rate parameter.

In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.

The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate.

Uniform probability distribution: it is also known as Continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution. It is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
Exponential probability distribution: it is a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process.

1a) Poisson Probability Distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution French pronunciation: ​named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson, is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event.[1] The Poisson distribution can also be used for the number of events in other specified intervals such as distance, area or volume.

b) Uniform Probability Distribution
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.The uniform distribution can be visualized as a straight horizontal line, so for a coin flip returning a head or tail, both have a probability p = 0.50 and would be depicted by a line from the y-axis at 0.50.
c) Exponential Probability Distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.The exponential distribution is not the same as the class of exponential families of distributions, which is a large class of probability distributions that includes the exponential distribution as one of its members, but also includes the normal distribution, binomial distribution, gamma distribution, Poisson, and many others.

Poisson probability distribution: it is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. It is a discrete function by which variable can take only a specified value in a list Examples include number of mosquito bite on person, number of computer crashes in a day etc.
Uniform probability distribution: it is also known as Continuous uniform distribution or rectangular distribution. It is a family of symmetric probability distributions. The distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds.
Exponential probability distribution: it is a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process.

What Is a Poisson probability Distribution?
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.

The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.

What Is Uniform probability Distribution?
In statistics, uniform distribution refers to a type of probability distribution in which all outcomes are equally likely. A deck of cards has within it uniform distributions because the likelihood of drawing a heart, a club, a diamond, or a spade is equally likely. A coin also has a uniform distribution because the probability of getting either heads or tails in a coin toss is the same.
Understanding Uniform probability Distribution
There are two types of uniform distributions: discrete and continuous. The possible results of rolling a die provide an example of a discrete uniform distribution: it is possible to roll a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, but it is not possible to roll a 2.3, 4.7, or 5.5. Therefore, the roll of a die generates a discrete distribution with p = 1/6 for each outcome. There are only 6 possible values to return and nothing in between.Some uniform distributions are continuous rather than discrete. An idealized random number generator would be considered a continuous uniform distribution. With this type of distribution, every point in the continuous range between 0.0 and 1.0 has an equal opportunity of appearing, yet there is an infinite number of points between 0.0 and 1.0.

Exponential distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. It is a particular case of the gamma distribution. It is the continuous analogue of the geometric distribution, and it has the key property of being memoryless. In addition to being used for the analysis of Poisson point processes it is found in various other contexts.

1. Poisson distribution
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period.
A Poisson distribution can be used to estimate how likely it is that something will happen “X” number of times. For example, if the average number of people who buy cheeseburgers from a fast-food chain on a Friday night at a single restaurant location is 200, a Poisson distribution can answer questions such as, “What is the probability that more than 300 people will buy burgers?”
e is Euler’s number (e = 2.71828…)
x is the number of occurrences
x! is the factorial of x
λ is equal to the expected value (EV) of x when that is also equal to its variance
It can be used to estimate how many times an event is likely to occur within “X” periods of time.
Poisson distributions are used when the variable of interest is a discrete count variable.
Many economic and financial data appear as count variables, such as how many times a person becomes unemployed in a given year, thus lending themselves to analysis with a Poisson distribution.

Uniform distribution
A uniform distribution, also called a rectangular distribution, is a probability distribution that has constant probability.
This distribution is defined by two parameters, a and b:
a is the minimum.
b is the maximum.
The distribution is written as U(a, b).
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution and is concerned with events that are equally likely to occur. When working out problems that have a uniform distribution, be careful to note if the data is inclusive or exclusive.
The probability density function is
F(x)= 1/b-a
for a ≤ x ≤ b.
Uniform distributions are probability distributions with equally likely outcomes.
In a discrete uniform distribution, outcomes are discrete and have the same probability.
In a continuous uniform distribution, outcomes are continuous and infinite.
In a normal distribution, data around the mean occur more frequently.
The frequency of occurrence decreases the farther you are from the mean in a normal distribution.

Exponential distribution
The exponential distribution is one of the widely used continuous distributions. It is often used to model the time elapsed between events. We will now mathematically define the exponential distribution, and derive its mean and expected value. Then we will develop the intuition for the distribution and discuss several interesting properties that it has.
A continuous random variable X is said to have an exponential distribution with parameter λ>0, shown as X∼Exponential(λ),
The exponential distribution is often concerned with the amount of time until some specific event occurs. For example, the amount of time (beginning now) until an earthquake occurs has an exponential distribution. Other examples include the length, in minutes, of long distance business telephone calls, and the amount of time, in months, a car battery lasts. It can be shown, too, that the value of the change that you have in your pocket or purse approximately follows an exponential distribution.

Poisson Distribution
In statistics, a Poisson distribution is a probability distribution that is used to show how many times an event is likely to occur over a specified period. In other words, it is a count distribution. Poisson distributions are often used to understand independent events that occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time. It was named after French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson.
The Poisson distribution is a discrete function, meaning that the variable can only take specific values in a (potentially infinite) list. Put differently, the variable cannot take all values in any continuous range. For the Poisson distribution (a discrete distribution), the variable can only take the values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc., with no fractions or decimals.

For example, if the average number of people who buy cheeseburgers from a fast-food chain on a Friday night at a single restaurant location is 200, a Poisson distribution can answer questions such as, “What is the probability that more than 300 people will buy burgers?” The application of the Poisson distribution thereby enables managers to introduce optimal scheduling systems that would not work with, say, a normal distribution.
Uniform Distribution
A uniform probability distributions one in which all elementary events in the sample space have an equal opportunity of occurring that is each event occurring has an equal chance. As a result, for a finite sample space of size n, the probability of an elementary event occurring is 1/n.
Exponential Distribution
This is usually present when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing early on for eg news and blog. The exponential distributions wildly used in the field of reliability. Reliability deals with the amount of time a product lasts. Its probability function is represented as; P(X=x) = me-mx.

POISSON PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION:
This is a discrete probability distribution derived by a French Mathematician/Physicist, SIMEON POISSON in 1837..
It arises frequently in counting number of random events in a given interval of time of space in a particular area of opportunity..
WHEN TO APPLY POISSON DISTRIBUTION
a) When we want to determine the number of times and event occured in a given area of opportunity..
b)When the number of times and event occured in one area is independent of the number of times and event occured in another area of opportunity.
c)When the probability of events occuring in an area becomes zero as the area of occurance becomes smaller..
POISSON PROBABILITY FUNCTION: e-^ ^X/x!
-Where x=random variables
-The symbol e(exponential)(the base of the natural logritgm system)is a constant =2.71282
-The Greek letter Lamb is called the parameter of the distribution, represents average number of times the random variable occurs in a specified interval of time or space..
UNIFORM PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
This is a type of continuous distribution which is used in rounding errors when measurements are recorded to some degree of accuracy. The parameters a and B which form the two boundaries of the interval over which the distribution is defined are the two parameters that completely specified the distribution..
The density function forms a rectangle with base B-a and constant height (B-a),as a result,the uniform distribution is often called RECTANGULAR DISTRIBUTION.The application of this distribution is often based on assumption that the probability of falling in an interval of fixed length with (a-B) is constant.
This distribution describes an experiment where there is an arbitrary outcome that lies between certain bounds. It is often abbreviated as U(a-B), where U stands for uniform distribution..
The difference between the bounds defines the interval lenght. All intervals of the same length on the distribution’s support,are equally probable..
Exponential Distribution
This is usually present when we are dealing with events that are rapidly changing early on for eg news and blog. The exponential distributions wildly used in the field of reliability. Reliability deals with the amount of time a product lasts. Its probability function is represented as; P(X=x) = me-mx.
