What is the formula for the Poisson distribution probability?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

P(x; μ) = (e-μ) (μx) / x! Correct P(x; μ) = (e-x) (μx) / x! P(x; μ) = (e-μ) (μ) / x! P(x; μ) = (e-μ) (μx) / x

Explanation

We can see that using formula we get P(x; μ) = (e-μ) (μx) / x!. Calculation gives this directly, check steps: apply rule, substitute values, simplify to get P(x; μ) = (e-μ) (μx) / x!.
