Probability using distribution(lambda)?
Thank you for reading! In this exercise, I think the lambda sign threw me off.
Here's the problem:
The number of monthly repairs on a computer (I'm guessing it was a PC, lol!) is a random variable that has the distribution with
. Find the probability that the computer works for a month:
a) without need for repairs
b) with need of two repairs
Is it THIS formula? ==>  = \frac{\lambda^x e^{-\lambda}}{x!})
If so, what would
be? I'm assuming that
is given (=5.5) and I'm guessing
is the number of repairs needed on the computer (which would be
on "a" and
on "b").
Thank you for all your help!
