Answer:

Answer is 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The text implies that the number of traffic accidents determines the number of ambulances required on the road. Hence, 1 traffic accident requires 1 ambulance.

The time slot and time of day remain same in both the text and the question.

The average or mean number of accidents is 1.1

QUESTION: What then is the probability that there is need for exactly 2 ambulances on that road and in that time frame?

In other words, what is the probability that there'll be 2 accidents on that road and in that time frame?

Since the mean number of accidents is 1.1,  2 is above the mean.

Probability of 1.1 accidents is 1, since that's the mean (expected value).

Probability of 2 accidents is 1/2 which is = 0.5
