,1. The manager of a supermarket is investigating the number of complaints per day
received from customers.




DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA
A random sample of 180 days is taken and the results are shown in the table below.


Number of complaints per day 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Frequency 12 28 37 38 29 17 19 0


(a) Calculate the mean and the variance of these data.
(3)
(b) Explain why the results in part (a) suggest that a Poisson distribution may be a
suitable model for the number of complaints per day.
(1)
The manager uses a Poisson distribution with mean 3 to model the number of
complaints per day.

(c) For a randomly selected day find, using the manager’s model, the probability that

there are

(i) at least 3 complaints,
(ii) more than 4 complaints but less than 8 complaints.
(4)
A week consists of 7 consecutive days.
(d) Using the manager’s model and a suitable approximation, show that the probability
that there are less than 19 complaints in a randomly selected week is 0.29 to
2 decimal places.
Show your working clearly.
(Solutions relying on calculator technology are not acceptable.)
(5)
A period of 13 weeks is selected at random.
