Question: This question has two parts.
- A local ice-cream store receives a customer every ten minutes on an average. Assume that the arrival events are described a Poisson distribution. The store closes for an hour from noon to 1 p.m. for lunch. Each lost customer costs $3 in profits. What is the expected loss that the store suffers daily on account of closing the store for lunch? Explain, in words, the meaning of the term "expected loss".
- A basketball player can score a basket on every fifth attempt on an average. What is the probability that the player will score third basket on the tenth attempt?
