Question
At a telephone enquiry system the number of phone cells regarding relevant enquiry follow Poisson distribution with an average of 5 phone calls during 10-minute time intervals. The probability that there is at the most one phone call during a 10-minute time period is
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
P(X = r) = 
P(X ≤ 1) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1)
= e-5 + 5 × e-5 =

P(X ≤ 1) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1)
= e-5 + 5 × e-5 =
