A life insurance salesman sells on the average $3$ life insurance policies per week. Use Poisson's law to calculate the probability that in a given week he will sell

a. Some policies

b. $2$ or more policies but less than $5$ policies.



How can i calculate Poisson's law?"

Guide:



a) Find $P(X>0)$ noting that $P(X>0)=1=P(X=0)$.



b) Find $P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)$.



This for random variable with Poisson-distribution parametrized by $lambda=3$.
