She believes that each purchase is independent of the others and wants to model the number of purchases per minute. Complete parts a through c below. What model might you suggest to model the number of purchases per minute? Poisson Geometric Binomial Uniform What is the probability that in any one minute at least one purchase is made? (Round to four decimal places as needed) What is the probability that no one makes a purchase in the next 2 minutes? (Round to four decimal places as needed)

Answer:poisson

Solution B:

P(X>=1)=1-P(X=0)

=1-e-1.9 (1.9)0/0!

=0.8504

Solutionc:

P(X=0=e-1.9*2 (1.9)0/0!

=0.0224
