The number of errors in each of 300 files has a Poisson distribution with 1.4 errors per file on average. Assume the errors in different files are independent. Use the Central Limit Theorem to approximate the probability that the total number of errors is at least 400. (Use a calculator.)

The number of imperfections in an object has a Poisson distribution with a mean λ = 8.5. If the number of imperfections is 4 or less, the object is called "top quality." If the number of imperfections is between 5 and 8 inclusive, the object is called "good quality." If the number of imperfections is between 9 and 12 inclusive, the object is called "normal quality." If the number of imperfections is 13 or more, the object is called "bad...
