If meteorites strike the surface of the moon "at random", the number of meteorite craters per unit area should be a Poisson random variable with parameter Lambda (expected number of craters per unit area). If N=10 units of area are examined and the total number of meteorite craters found is 8, would you accept H_0: lambda=0.5 with alpha=0.68, with the alternative H_1: lambda=1? Evaluate Beta for this test.
