The switchboard in a Denver law office gets an average of 8.2 incoming phonecalls during the noon hour on Thursdays. Find the probability that more than 4 calls will be received during the noon hour, on some particular Thursday. Assume calls are independent of each other.

The probability that more than 4 calls will be received during the noon hour, on some particular Thursday is 0.9113.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X can be defined as the number of incoming phone calls during the noon hour on Thursdays.

The random variable X describes a finite number of occurrences of an event in a fixed time interval.

The random variable X follows a Poisson distribution with parameter λ = 8.2.

The probability mass function of X is:

Compute the probability of more than 4 calls as follows:    

Thus, the probability that more than 4 calls will be received during the noon hour, on some particular Thursday is 0.9113.
