Vedclass · Answer

(C) For a Poisson distribution, the probability mass function is given by $P(X=k) = \frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^k}{k!}$.Given that $P(X=1) = P(X=2)$, we have:$\frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^1}{1!} = \frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^2}{2!}$Dividing both sides by $e^{-\lambda} \lambda$ (assuming $\lambda 
eq 0$):$1 = \frac{\lambda}{2}$$\lambda = 2$Now, we need to find $P(X=4)$:$P(X=4) = \frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^4}{4!} = \frac{e^{-2} (2)^4}{4!}$$P(X=4) = \frac{e^{-2} 	imes 16}{24} = \frac{2}{3 e^2}$.

If $X$ is a Poisson variate such that $P(X=1)=P(X=2)$, then $P(X=4)$ is equal to
