Suppose that on the average, 5 customers arrive at a shop during a 1-hour period. Assume arrival times of customers follow a Poisson Process. Find the probability that no customer will arrive within 10 minutes. Find the probability that the fifth customer will arrive after an hour. (Hint: NOT 36.8% and 17.5%)
