Assume that the Poisson distribution applies and that the mean number of hurricanes in a certain area is 7.67.6 per year. a. Find the probability that, in a year, there will be 66 hurricanes. b. In a 3535-year period, how many years are expected to have 66 hurricanes? c. How does the result from part (b) compare to a recent period of 3535 years in which 44 years had 66 hurricanes? Does the Poisson distribution work well here?
