Answer:

This is useful to choose which calculation to perform.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Firstly, let's consider that the Binomial Distribution tends to the Poisson Distribution given certain conditions:

n\rightarrow \infty, p\rightarrow 0, \lambda =np

Roughly, they tend to the same value.

2) The Binomial Probability is calculated through this formula:

Binomial: P(X=x)=\binom{n}{x}p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}

Poisson Distribution this way:

Poisson:P(X=x)=\frac{\lambda^{x} e^{-\lambda }}{x!}

3) If we plug

p=\frac{\lambda }{n}

In the Binomial formula, given an "n" a very large quantity we'll have a closer outcome to Poisson.

P(X=x)=\binom{n}{x}\left ( \frac{\lambda }{n} \right )^{x}(1-\frac{\lambda }{n})^{n-x} \approx \frac{\lambda^{x} e^{-\lambda }}{x!}

4) This is useful especially due to the convenience of calculating.

Because operating with exponentials and factorials, is hard and sometimes 'n' and 'p' may also be unknown, and sometimes the known parameter is the Mean.

A bicycle has tires with a diameter of 21 inches. How many inches will
Finger [1]

Answer:

175 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1 full revolution, the bike will travel 42 inches because the diameter of the tire is 21 inches. Any point on the tire will have to go through a whole revolution to be back at the original point which means 21 inches times 2.

So the bike travels 42 inches in 1 revolution then in 50 revolutions it will travel 2100 inches (42 times 50). Now if your convert 2100 inches to feet, you get 175 feet.
