A zoologist spent 70 days studying how often a slow loris is sighted per day in a particular forest. She noted the number of times it has been seen for each day. The data are as follows: 0 1 2 3 17 23 number of sightings 4 number of months 16 8 6 Test whether the number of sightings per day of the slow loris follows the Poisson probability distribution with 2 = 1.2 at 5% level of significance. Note that xổ.o5,4 = 9.49
