Answer: 0.1008188

Step-by-step explanation:

The question will usng the poisson distribution formula:

Given :

Mean(λ) number of occurrence in a given interval = 3

P(X=x) = Probability of exactly x occurrence in a given interval

Number of desired occurence(x) = 5

P(X=x) = [(λ^x) * (e^-λ)] / x!

Where ; e = base of natural logarithm = 2.7182818

P(X=5) = [(3^5) * (e^-3)] / 5!

P(X=5) = [(243) * (0.0497870)] / 120

P(X=5) = [12.098257] / 120

P(X=5) = 0.1008188
