The number of male mates of a queen wasp has a Poisson distribution with parameter λ = 2.7. Find the probability that the number, Y, of male mates of a queen wasp is
a. Exactly two.
b. At most two.
c. Between one and three, inclusive.
d. On average, how many male mates does a queen wasp have?
e. Construct a table of probabilities for the random variable Y . Compute the probabilities until they are zero to three decimal places.
f. Draw a histogram of the probabilities in part (e).
