It’s phrased very weird, but I believe I have it figured out.
On the map, there distance of the race is 41.9 inches.
So, (41.9)(400) = 16760 feet

Answer:
a) The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108
b) The probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227
c) I would recommend taking a Poisson model with mean 4.4 instead of a Poisson model with mean 2.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability mass function of X, for which we denote the amount of bags lost next monday is given by this formula

a)

The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108.
b) Note that
. And

Therefore, the probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227.
c) If the double of flights are taken, then you at least should expect to loose a similar proportion in bags, because you will have more chances for a bag to be lost. WIth this in mind, we can correctly think that the average amount of bags that will be lost each day will double. Thus, i would double the mean of the Poisson model, in other words, i would take a Poisson model with mean 4.4, instead of 2.2.
