Question 266375: Use the Poisson Distribution to find the indicated probability.
The number of calls received by a car towing service averages 19.2 per day (per 24-hour period). After finding the mean number of calls per hour, find the probability that in a randomly selected hour the number of calls is 2.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use the Poisson Distribution to find the indicated probability.
The number of calls received by a car towing service averages 19.2 per day (per 24-hour period). After finding the mean number of calls per hour, find the probability that in a randomly selected hour the number of calls is 2.

I used the poissonpdf((19.2/24),2) function on a TI-84 and
got 0.14379
