Suppose that the random variable X has a Poisson distribution with parameter λ = 3. a. Determine P(X = 4). b. Determine P(X < 2). c. Determine P(X ≥ 4). (Hint: Use the complementation rule.) d. Find the mean of X. e. Find the standard deviation of X. a. P(X = 4) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) b. P(X < 2) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) c. P(X ≥ 4) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) d. The mean of x is . (Type an integer or a decimal.) e. The standard deviation of x is σ = . (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

We have provided the parameter of a Poisson random variable, $X .$ For each exercise. a. determine the required probabilities. Round your probability answers to three decimal places. b. find the mean and standard deviation of $X .$ $$\lambda=5 ; P(X=5), P(X<2), P(X \geq 3) .$$ (Hint: For the third probability, use the complementation rule.)
