ANSWER:

Solution 158E

Step1 of 5:

Let us consider a random variable X it follows poisson distribution with parameter

Here our goal is:

a). We need to find

b). We need to find

c). We need to find

d). We need to find

Step2 of 5:

a).

Suppose that a random variable X follows Poisson distribution with parameters ‘’

Then, the probability mass function of poisson distribution is given by:

                  x = 0,1,2,...

Now,

                   

                     

Therefore, P(X = 0) = 0.6703.
