Answer:

The probability that the page will get at least one hit during any given minute is 0.9093.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of hits a web page receives per minute.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Poisson distribution with parameter,

<em>λ</em> = 2.4.

The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,...

Compute the probability that the page will get at least one hit during any given minute as follows:

P (X ≥ 1) = 1 - P (X < 1)

             = 1 - P (X = 0)

             =1-\frac{e^{-2.4}(2.4)^{0}}{0!}\\=1-\frac{0.09072\times1}{1} \\=1-0.09072\\=0.90928\\\approx0.9093

Thus, the probability that the page will get at least one hit during any given minute is 0.9093.
