envelope and sealed. He addresses the envelopes, at random, one each to A, B, C D and E.
(i) Find the probability that the letter to A is in the correct envelope and letter to B is inan incorrect envelope. 11]

7 . During weekdays , the number of people entering a bookshop per hour has a Poisson distribution
with mean 4. Independently the number of people leaving the bookshop per hour has a Poisson
distribution with mean 3.
(a) Find the probability that during a half-hour interval.
(i) no one will enter and no one will leave the bookshop' t2l(ii) at most one person will enter the bookshop, given that the total number of people
entering and leaving the bookshop is exactly 5. t3]
(b) The probability that a person buys a mathematics textbook from the bookshop is 0.07.
By using a suitable approximation, find the probability that in a random sample of 60
people, at most 5 of them will buy a mathematics textbook. t3]
