If a random variable $X$ follows a Poisson distribution with a mean value of $5$,then the probability that $X < 3$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{37}{2} e^5$
  • B
    $6 e^5$
  • C
    $6 e^{-5}$
  • D
    $\frac{37}{2} e^{-5}$

Three defective oranges are accidentally mixed with seven good ones and on looking at them,it is not possible to differentiate between them. Two oranges are drawn at random from the lot. If $x$ denotes the number of defective oranges,then the variance of $x$ is:

In a city,it is found that $10$ accidents took place in a span of $50$ days. Assuming that the number of accidents follows the Poisson distribution,the probability that there will be $3$ or more accidents in a day in that city is

$A$ six-faced die is biased such that $3 \times P(\text{a prime number}) = 6 \times P(\text{a composite number}) = 2 \times P(1)$. Let $X$ be a random variable that counts the number of times one gets a perfect square on some throws of this die. If the die is thrown twice,then the mean of $X$ is.
