(3) 1.2) That at least six students will have their own laptops. (4) 1.3) That at most five students will have their own laptops (4) QUESTION 2 [11] The number of accidents that occur on an assembly line have a Poisson distribution with an average of five accidents per week. 2.1) Find the probability that exactly two accidents will occur in a week. (3) 2.2) Find the probability that a particular week will be accident free. (3) 2.3) Find the probability that at least three accidents will occur in a week. (3) 2.4) If the accidents in different weeks are independent of each other, find the expected number of accidents to occur in a year. (2) QUESTION 3 [9] The time it takes a student to complete an assignment is normally distributed with mean 45 minutes and a standard deviation of 7 minutes. Find the probability that it takes the following lengths of time for a student to complete an assignment. 3.1) Between 45 and 56 minutes. (3) 3.2) Less than 33 minutes (3) 3.3) More than 29 minutes (3)
