d.A local drugstore owner knows that, on average, 100 people per hour stop by his store. Find the probability that in a given 3 minute period, more than 5 (P(x > 5) people enter the store.
e.An electronic switching device occasionally malfunctions and may need to be replaced.It is known that the device is satisfactory if it makes, on average no more than .2 errors per hour.A particular five hour period is chosen as a “test” on the device. If no more than 1 error occurs, the device is considered satisfactory.What is the probability that a satisfactory device will be mis- diagnosed as “unsatisfactory” on the basis of the test?
