The number x of people entering the intensive care unit at a particular hospital on any one day has a Poisson probability distribution with mean equal to five persons per day. (a) What is the probability that the number of people entering the intensive care unit on a particular day is two? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) What is the probability that the number of people entering the intensive care unit on a particular day is less than or equal to two? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (b) Is it likely that x will exceed 10? Explain. O Yes, x is less than 2 standard deviations above the mean. O No, x is more than 2 standard deviations above the mean. You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question.

An automated machine dispenses milkshakes into large-size cups at a local fast food chain. The amount dispensed is normally distributed with a mean of 23 and standard deviation of 1.4, all measures in ounces. If the cups can hold a maximum of 25 ounces, and 700 milkshakes are sold on a particular day, about how many of the milkshakes will overflow?
Having trouble finding the answer to this as I have 3 different answers which don't seem right. rearrange the following into x= 1) 4x-3=5+8x 2) 3x-2d=5(x-4d)-2 please show working out so I can see where I went wrong. Thanks
