Busses Arrive at a Certain Stop Such That in a Time

Question 8

Short Answer

Busses arrive at a certain stop such that in a time interval of length the number of arrivals is a random variable with probability mass function f(i)={et(ti)i!i=0,1,2,0 elsewhere f ( i ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } e ^ { - t } \frac { \left( t ^ { i } \right) } { i ! } & i = 0,1,2 , \ldots \\0 & \text { elsewhere }\end{array} \right.
(a) Prove that is indeed a probability mass function.
(b) Find the probability of at least 3 arrivals in one time period of length .
