The numbers of accidents which occur on an assembly line each week over a 2 year period are summarised in Table 1. Table 1: Number of accidents, 0 1 2 23456780 3 5 6 8 Frequency 1 HNSKO2I2 14 21 36 18 9 1 (a) Use the data to compute the sample mean number of accidents recorded per area. (b) Suppose the data in Table 1 follows a Poisson distribution. Calculate the theoretical Poisson(A = 3) probabilities for integers in the range 0 to 9 inclusive.
