Math Problem Statement
An internal study by the Technology Services department at Lahey Electronics revealed company employees receive an average of 4.9 non-work-related emails per hour. Assume the arrival of these emails is approximated by the Poisson distribution. Required: What is the probability Linda Lahey, company president, received exactly 3 non-work-related emails between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. yesterday? Note: Round your answer to 4 decimal places.
