Question: Identify the parameter p in the following binomial distribution scenario. The probability of buying a movie ticket with a popcorn coupon is0.785, and the probability

  1. Identify the parameterpin the following binomial distribution scenario. The probability of buying a movie ticket with a popcorn coupon is0.785, and the probability of buying a movie ticket without a popcorn coupon is0.215. If you buy18movie tickets, we want to know the probability that more than12of the tickets have popcorn coupons. (Consider tickets with popcorn coupons as successes in the binomial distribution.)
  2. On average, Nancy has noticed that18trucks pass by her apartment daily (24hours). In order to find the probability that more than2trucks will pass her apartment in a3-hour time period using the Poisson distribution, find the average number of trucks per3hours. Round your answer to three decimal places, if necessary.
