Содержание слайда: Probability and cumulative probability distribution of a discrete random variable In the last class we saw how to calculate the probability of a specific discrete random variable, such as P( x = 3) and the cumulative probability such as P(x 3) in n trials with the following formula: We need to know n, x and P (probability of success)

Содержание слайда: The binomial distribution is used to find the probability of a specific or cumulative number of successes in n trials.

Содержание слайда: Probability and cumulative probability distribution of a discrete random variable Ali, real estate agent has 5 potential customers to buy a house or apartment with a probability of 0.40. The probability and cumulative probability table of the sale of houses here below. We are able to answer what is P( x=3), P(x 4), P(x >3)etc.

Содержание слайда: Shape of Binomial Distribution The shape of the binomial distribution depends on the values of P and n

Содержание слайда: Binomial Distribution shapes When P = .5 the shape of the distribution is perfectly symmetrical and resembles a bell-shaped (normal distribution) When P = .2 the distribution is skewed right. This skewness increases as P becomes smaller. When P = .8, the distribution is skewed left. As P comes closer to 1, the amount of skewness increases.

Содержание слайда: Poisson random variable, first proposed by Frenchman Simeon Poisson (1781-1840)

Содержание слайда: Poisson Random Variable - three requirements 1. The number of expected outcomes in one interval of time or unit space is unaffected (independent) by the number of expected outcomes in any other non-overlapping time interval. Example: What took place between 3:00 and 3:20 p.m. is not affected by what took place between 9:00 and 9:20 a.m.

Содержание слайда: Poisson Random Variable - three requirements (continued) 2.The expected (or mean) number of outcomes over any time period or unit space is proportional to the size of this time interval. Example: We expect half as many outcomes between 3:00 and 3:30 P.M. as between 3:00 and 4:00 P.M. 3.This requirement also implies that the probability of an occurrence must be constant over any intervals of the same length. Example: The expected outcome between 3:00 and 3:30P.M. is equal to the expected occurrence between 4:00 and 4:30 P.M..

Содержание слайда: Examples of a Poisson Random variable The number of cars arriving at a toll booth in 1 hour (the time interval is 1 hour) The number of failures in a large computer system during a given day (the given day is the interval) The number of delivery trucks to arrive at a central warehouse in an hour. The number of customers to arrive for flights at an airport during each 10-minute time interval from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays

Содержание слайда: Situations where the Poisson distribution is widely used: Capacity planning – time interval Areas of capacity planning observed in a sample: A bank wants to know how many customers arrive at the bank in a given time period during the day, so that they can anticipate the waiting lines and plan for the number of employees to hire. At peak hours they might want to open more guichets (employ more personnel) to reduce waiting lines and during slower hours, have a few guichets open (need for less personnel).

Содержание слайда: Poisson Probability Distribution Poisson Probability Function

Содержание слайда: Example: Drive-up ATM Window Poisson Probability Function: Time Interval Suppose that we are interested in the number of arrivals at the drive-up ATM window of a bank during a 15-minute period on weekday mornings. If we assume that the probability of a car arriving is the same for any two time periods of equal length and that the arrival or non-arrival of a car in any time period is independent of the arrival or non-arrival in any other time period, the Poisson probability function is applicable. Then if we assume that an analysis of historical data shows that the average number of cars arriving during a 15-minute interval of time is 10, the Poisson probability function with  = 10 applies.

Содержание слайда: Continuous random variable A continuous random variable can assume any value in an interval on the real line or in a collection of intervals. It is not possible to talk about the probability of the random variable assuming a particular value, because the probability will be close to 0. Instead, we talk about the probability of the random variable assuming a value within a given interval.
