Answer:

The required probability is 0.55404.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The number of typographical errors on a page of the first booklet is a Poisson random variable with mean 0.2. The number of typographical errors on a page of second booklet is a Poisson random variable with mean 0.3.

Average error for 7 pages booklet and 5 pages booklet series is:

λ = 0.2×7 + 0.3×5 = 2.9

According to Poisson distribution: $P(k{\text{ events in interval}})={\frac {\lambda ^{k}e^{-\lambda }}{k!}}$

Where $\lambda$ is average number of events.

The probability of more than 2 typographical errors in the two booklets in total is:

$P(k > 2)= 1 - {P(k = 0) + P(k = 1) + P(k = 2)}$

Substitute the respective values in the above formula.

$P(k > 2)= 1 - ({\frac {2.9 ^{0}e^{-2.9}}{0!}} + \frac {2.9 ^{1}e^{-2.9}}{1!}} + \frac {2.9 ^{2}e^{-2.9}}{2!}})$

$P(k > 2)= 1 - (0.44596)$

$P(k > 2)=0.55404$

Hence, the required probability is 0.55404.

I think it's just determining what the negative means. Negative with the x axis means to the left (because the left side is negative). Negative with the y axis is down (because the down side is negative.) So once you know that, it's obviously D because both are negative.

I hope that helped!
