Answer:

Let X the random variable that represent the number of emails from students the day before the midterm exam. For this case the best distribution for the random variable X is X \sim Poisson(\lambda=24.7)

The probability mass function for the random variable is given by:

f(x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^x}{x!} , x=0,1,2,3,4,...

The best answer for this case would be:

C. Poisson distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the number of emails from students the day before the midterm exam. For this case the best distribution for the random variable X is X \sim Poisson(\lambda=24.7)

The probability mass function for the random variable is given by:

f(x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^x}{x!} , x=0,1,2,3,4,...

And f(x)=0 for other case.

For this distribution the expected value is the same parameter \lambda

E(X)=\mu =\lambda

And for this case we want to calculate this probability:

P(X \geq 10)

The best answer for this case would be:

C. Poisson distribution

Solution :

Given that ,

mean = \mu = 24.7

P(X \geq10)

C) This is the poisson distribution .
