Geologists estimate the time since the most recent cooling of a mineral by counting the number of uranium fission tracks on the surface of the mineral. A certain mineral specimen is of such an age that there should be an average of 6 tracks per of surface area. Assume the number of tracks in an area follows a Poisson distribution. Let X represent the number of tracks counted in 1 of surface area. Find

a. P(X = 7)

b. P(X ? 3)

c. P(2
d.

e.
