(a) The random variables W and X have the independent distributions Po(1.2) and Po(2.3) respectively.
(i) Find P(3≤W+X≤5).
(2)
The random variable S is the sum of 100 independent values of W and 200 independent values of X.
(ii) Use a suitable approximation to find P(S>600).
(6)
(b) The random variable Y has the distribution Po(λ), where λ>0.
