Let X, the number of flaws on the surface of a randomly selected boiler of a certain type, have a Poisson distribution with parameter μ = 5. Use the cumulative Poisson probabilities from the Appendix Tables to compute the following probabilities. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) P(X ≤ 7) (b) P(X = 7) (c) P(8 ≤ X) (d) P(5 ≤ X ≤7) (e) P(5< x < 7)
