A.1) A new printing machine is tested about the number of printing errors per 5m? paper. It is assumed tha printing errors will have Poisson distribution with parameter I. a) lf X1, X2. .... X, is a random sample of size n, estimate the parameter of the distribution. b) The randomly selected 12 papers are inspected, and the number of printing errors are found as 2. 0. 0. and 0. Estimate the mean number of printing errors, and write down the distribution function. c) In order to estimate the distribution parameter with 0.3 error and 4% risk, find the minimum sample size.

A company has 8000 arrivals of Internet traffic over a period of 17,460 thousandths of a minute. Let the random variable x represent the number of such Internet traffic arrivals in one thousandth of a minute. It appears that these Internet arrivals have a Poisson distribution. If we want to use the formula P(x)= μx•e−μ x! to find the probability of exactly 3 arrivals in one thousandth of a minute, what are the values of μ, x, and e that would be used in that formula?
