Calculation of probabilities in a Poisson distribution, using tables - Part 1

In this video we look at how to use statistical tables to calculate probabilities in a Poisson distribution. This includes an example of using the table for the probability density function to determine the probability the random variable is equal to a particular value and an example of using the table for the cumulative distribution function to determine the probability the random variable is less than a certain value and an example determining the probability it is greater than or equal to a certain value.

Calculation of probabilities in a Poisson distribution, using tables - Part 2

In this video we look at how to use statistical tables to calculate probabilities in a Poisson distribution. This includes an example of using the table for the probability density function to determine the probability the random variable is equal to particular value in a case where the average number of events per interval needs to be adjusted to match the units specified in the question and an example of using the table for the cumulative distribution function to determine the probability the random variable takes a value between two specified numbers.

Deciding if a distribution is Binomial or Poisson

In this video we look at how to decide for a given scenario (worded problem) if the distribution described is a Binomial distribution or Poisson distribution and whether its probability distribution function or its cumulative distribution function is required to calculate a specified probability.
