PPT-The Geometric and Poisson Distributions

The Geometric and Poisson Distributions Geometric Distribution A geometric distribution shows the number of trials needed until a success is achieved Example When shooting baskets what is the probability that the first time you make the basket will be the fourth time you shoot the ball.

A: Outliers. We want to know how probable are the outliers of large market moves, so we can control our exposure and risk. Dr. Gavisiddappa . Gadag. Introduction:. . In case of population the values of variables are distributed according to some definite probability law which can be expressed mathematically and the corresponding probability distribution is known as...
