Poisson Distribution Overview, Formula & Examples

SOLVED: Two types of discrete random variables, the Binomial and the Poisson, and two types of continuous random variables, the Uniform and the Exponential, are discussed. Depending on the context, these types of random variables may serve as theoretical models of the uncertainty associated with the outcome of a measurement.Give an example, USING YOUR OWN WORDS (NOT TEXT COPIED FROM THE INTERNET), of how the Exponential distribution could be used to model something in real life (only one example
