The June Bootids meteor shower produces about 6 observable meteors per hour. Suppose that X, the number of observable meteors we in a one- hour period has a Poisson distribution with parameter A = 6. The Poisson distribution is very useful in analyzing phenomena w occur randomly in space or time. Let Y be the number of observable meteors we see in a two-hour period. Y can also be modeled as a P random variable. a. For our model, what is expected value of X? b. What is the probability that X = 7? c. What is the probability that X < 7?
