We have a binomial experiment with n = 18 trials, each with probability p = 0.15 of a success. A success occurs if a student withdraws from a class, so the number of successes, x, will take on the values 0, 1, and 2. The probability of each x value, denoted f(x), can be found using a table like the one below. Note that these values are rounded to four decimal places. n x p 0.10 0.15 0.20 0.25 18...

When the number of trials, n, is large, binomial probability tables may not be available. Furthermore, if a computer is not available, hand calculations will be tedious. As an alternative, the Poisson distribution can be used to approximate the binomial distribution when n is large and p is small. Here the mean of the Poisson distribution is taken to be μ = np. That is, when n is large and p is small, we can use the Poisson formula with...
