2. It can be shown that if the random variable Trepresents the time to the rth event in a Poisson process with rate parameter å, then T has a Gamma distribution with parameters r and A. That is, T~r(r, 1). Assuming T~[(2,1), find P(T < 2) in each of the following ways: By integrating the Gamma pdf from 0 to 2 (recall r(r) = (r – 1)! When r is an integer). See section 4.8 if you don't recall the pdf. Using the formula F(x) = P(T
