Poisson distribution
Find the probabilities for $x$ using the Poisson formula. $$ \mu=2.5 ; P(x=0), P(x=1), P(x=2), \text { and } P(x \leq 2) $$

The Poisson Probability Distribution
Suppose $X$ has a Poisson distribution with a mean of $4 .$ Determine the following probabilities: (a) $P(X=0)$ (b) $P(X \leq 2)$ (c) $P(X=4)$ (d) $P(X=8)$
