Identify the issue

Formulate a methodology to solve

JJ works in a plant that does ceramic coating on large boiler plates. The syrupy ceramic coating is brushed on the metal plate and later dried at 1200 degrees in a furnace. Invariably a few cracks develop on the surface. JJ began counting the number of cracks in 3-foot length of plates. What probability distribution would JJ use to describe the probability of “n” cracks in a 3-foot length? State the reason why? How will she confirm the distribution chosen is correct?

Explanation / Answer

JJ will use poisson distribution to describe the probability of “n” cracks in a 3-foot length
