A highly trafficked Interstate Highway has an hourly average of 2 accidents over any 10 mile stretch. The number of accidents is believed to follow a Poisson distribution.
Use the Poisson Distribution table (pages 3 & 4) to determine the probability that:
1) Over a 10 mile stretch, NO accidents will occur during a randomly selected hour
2) There will be more than 8 accidents over a 30 mile stretch during a randomly selected hour
