If the number X of particles emitted during a 1-hour period from a radioactive source has a poisson distribution with parameter equal to 4 and that the probability that any emitted is recorded is p=0.9 find the probability distribution of the number Y of the particles recorded in a 1-hour and hence the probability that no particle is recorded
