उत्तर

Since the mortality rate for a certain disease in 7 in loop

∴ p = `7/1000` and n = 400

The value of mean A = λp

= `400 xx 7/1000`

∴ λ = 2.8

Let x be a random variable following distribution with p(x) = `("e"^(-lambda)lambda^x)/(x!)`

∴ The distribution is P(X = 2) = `("e"^(-2 - 8) (2.8)^2)/(2!)`

= `(0.06 xx 7.84)/2`

= 0.2352
