Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a poisson distribution. Let x be a random representing the number of calls in a given time interval.

a) the expected number of calls in one hour is the same as the mean score in 60 minutes. Thus,

Mean score = 60/2 = 30 calls

b) The interval of interest is 5 minutes.

µ = 5/2 = 2.5

We want to determine P(x = 3)

Using the Poisson probability calculator,

P(x = 3) = 0.21

c) µ = 5/2 = 2.5

We want to determine P(x = 0)

Using the Poisson probability calculator,

P(x = 0) = 0.08
