The Poisson probability distribution‚ named after the French mathematician Siméon-Denis. Poisson is another important probability distribution of a discrete random variable that has a large number of applications. Suppose a washing machine in a Laundromat breaks down an average of three times a month. We may want to find the probability of exactly two breakdowns during the next month. This is an example of a Poisson probability distribution problem. Each breakdown is called an occurrence in Poisson

The linear probability model‚ ctd. When Y is binary‚ the linear regression model Yi = β0 + β1Xi + ui is called the linear probability model. • The predicted value is a probability: • E(Y|X=x) = Pr(Y=1|X=x) = prob. that Y = 1 given x • Yˆ = the predicted probability that Yi = 1‚ given X • β1 = change in probability that Y = 1 for a given ∆x: Pr(Y = 1 | X = x + ∆x ) − Pr(Y = 1 | X = x ) β1 = ∆x 5 Example: linear probability model‚ HMDA data Mortgage denial v. ratio of debt payments to income (P/I

that contributes in the pollution in our environment. Banana peels‚ egg shells‚ rice grains‚ spoiled meals are examples of food waste and this includes the raw material that will be used in the study‚ oyster shells. Oysters are commonly consumed‚ cooked or raw‚ by humans as a delicacy but the shells of it are usually thrown away and that’s the reason why oyster shells are one of the most common household garbage. Oyster shells are abundant in tropical countries especially in the Philippines where

they suffered during the war‚ in 1917 British physician Charles Myers coined this reaction as Shell Shock. It was thought that shell shock was due to the result of being close to exploding shells. Today though‚ Shell shock is called Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This change of name happened in 1970 after the Vietnam War. PTSD is essentially the same as Shell Shock but PTSD is a more precise than Shell Shock was. PTSD is now considered a common psychological disorder which can occur to a person
