A Poisson distribution with λ =7.5 and x=4. Use the probability distribution identified above to calculate the following: a. The probability P(x) for the indicated value of x. P(4)= 0 Round to 3 significant digits b. The mean and standard deviation of the distribution. Mean (μ) = 0 SD (σ) = 0 Round to 3 significant digits

Suppose that $X$ has a Poisson distribution. Determine the following probabilities when the mean of $X$ is 4 and repeat for a mean of 0.4 : a. $P(X=0) \quad$ b. $P(X \leq 2)$ c. $P(X=4)$ d. $P(X=8)$
