When three or more orders are placed, one (1) technical expert from PLDT, the country's broadband and digital services provider, is assigned to the city. For a 100,000-person city, supposed orders follow a Poisson distribution with a mean of 0.25 each week. Suppose your city has a population of 800,000 people, and if you are the first one in the city to place an order, what is the probability that you have to wait more than two weeks from the time you place your order until a technician is dispatched? a. 0.3281 b. 0.2381 c. 0.0183 d. 0.0916

Pollsters are concerned about declining levels of cooperation among persons contacted in surveys. A pollster contacts 95 people in the 18-21 age bracket and finds that 81 of them respond and 14 refuse to respond.
