Answer:

N= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

mean \lambda =  3

provide repairs at least =  25%

solution

as here for poisson distribution

P(X=k) = \frac{(\lambda )^ke^{-\lambda }}{k!}   ......................1

so here

P(X>n) = 0.25

and

P(X>n) = e^{-3 } \sum_{X=n}^{\infty } \frac{(3 )^k}{k!}\geq 0.25      ..............2

so

P(X>3) = 0.3528

and

P(X>4) = 0.1847

so here  

N= 3
