This week the number $X$ of claims coming into an insurance office has a Poisson distribution with mean $100 .$ The probability that any particular claim relates to automobile insurance is $.6,$ independent of any other claim. If $Y$ is the number of automobile claims, then $Y$ is binomial with $X$ trials, each with "success" probability .6 (a) Determine $E(Y | X=x)$ and $\operatorname{Var}(Y | X=x) .$ (b) Use part (a) to find $E(Y) .$ (c) Use part (a) to find Var(Y).
