Suppose that trees are distributed in a forest according to a two-dimensional Poisson process with lambda the expected number of trees per acre given by 80.

(a)(3pts) What is the probability that in a certain quarter acre plot there will be at most 16 trees?

(b)(2pts) If the forest covers 85,000 acres what is the expected number of trees in the forest?

Please provide the answer in Rstudio code. Thank you.

Customers arrive at a two-server system according to a Poisson process having rate λ = 5. An arrival finding server 1 free will begin service with that server. An arrival finding server 1 busy and server 2 free will enter service with server 2. An arrival finding both servers busy goes away. Once a customer is served by either server, he departs the system. The service times at server i are exponential with rates μi, where μ1 = 4, μ2...
