Assume that an average episode is 45 minutes long, and given the
probability that a given episode has a probability of passing the
Bechdel-Wallace Test of 0.52, that is the equivalent 0.693
instances of passing the Bechdel-Wallace Test per hour of
viewing.
a) Using the Poisson Probability distribution, if I watch ten
hours, what is the probability that I see more than 7 instances of
passing the Bechdel-Wallace Test?
b) using the Exponential Distribution, what is the probability
that I will have to watch more than three hours to see one instance
of passing the Bechdel-Wallace Test?
