**Problem Statement:**Suppose the number of babies born each hour at a hospital follows a Poisson distribution with a mean of 2. Find the probability that exactly five babies will be born during a particular 1-hour period at this hospital.**Answer Options:**- 0.036089- 0.001739- 0.000006- 0.004511**Explanation:**The given question involves using the Poisson distribution to calculate the probability of a specific event. The Poisson distribution is used to model the number of times an event occurs in an interval of time or space. The probability of observing exactly \( k \) events in an interval is given by:\[ P(X = k) = \frac{{\lambda^k \cdot e^{-\lambda}}}{k!} \]Where:- \( \lambda \) is the average rate (mean), which is 2 in this case.- \( k \) is the number of events (babies), which is 5.To solve the problem, plug in the values into the Poisson probability formula to calculate the probability for \( k = 5 \).
