3. Inacertain lottery, on average 1 in every 10000 tickets is a prize-winning ticket. An agent sells 6000 tickets (a) Use a suitable approximating distribution to find the probability that atleast 3 ofthe tiekets sold by the agent are pri -winning tickets. BI (b)_ Justify the use of your approximating distribution in this context. wc Marks 0 a=106 Man = Dien 1e(paett) i expe Aceptoerat Eaton impli, a 5 The number of goals scored by a sports team in the first half of any match has the distribution X~ Po(3.1). The number of goals scored by the same team in the second half of any maich has the distribution ¥ ~ Po(2.4). You may assume that the distributions of X and ¥ are independent (a) Find PUY <4). 2) (b) Find the probability that, in a randomly chosen match, the team scores at least 5 goals.
