SECTION B ( 15 marks) Answer any one question in this section. 7. The demand for durian cakes in a confectionary shop may be taken to follow a Poisson distribution with mean 0.4 cake per hour. The shop opens for 7 days a week and does business for 10 hours per day. a) Find the probability that the demand for durian cake is at least 3 in a day. [3] b) Find the probability that there is at most one day with zero demand for durian cake in a week. [3] c) Given that the demand for durian cake is exactly 3 on a particular day, what is the probability that this occurred within the first hour of business. [4] d) The shop produces 4 durian cakes per day and all unsold cakes are destroyed at the end of the day. If each durian cake costs RM5 and sells for RM 20, find the expected profit per day from the sales of durian cakes. [5] 8.
