Explanation

The entire problem can be solved using below method Binomial: A manufacturer of metal pistons finds that on the average, 12% of his pistons are rejected because they are either oversize or undersize. What is the probability that a batch of 10 pistons will contain no more than 2 rejects? Poisson: A life insurance salesman sells on the average 3 life insurance policies per week. Use Poisson's law to calculate the probability that in a given week he will sell Some policies Poisson: Vehicles pass through a junction on a busy road at an average rate of 300 per hour Find the probability that none passes in a given minute. Normal: It was found that the mean length of 100 parts produced by a lathe was 20.05 mm with a standard deviation of 0.02 mm. Find the probability that a part selected at random would have a length between 20 03 mm and 20.08 mm
