The number of ﬂoods that occur in a certain region over a given year is a random variable having a Poisson distribution with mean 2, independently from one year to the other. Moreover, the time period (in days) during which the ground is ﬂooded, at the time of an arbitrary ﬂood, is an exponential random variable with mean 5. We assume that the durations of the ﬂoods are independent. Using the central limit theorem, calculate (approximately) (a) the probability that...
