In a study on the effectiveness of different flu vaccines, four vaccines were tested with the following probabilities of preventing the flu:
Is this a probability distribution, and if so, what are its mean and standard deviation?
During a particular month, a hospital recorded a total of 120120 births. Assuming that births occur randomly and independently at a constant average rate, use the Poisson distribution to determine the probability that on a randomly selected day, exactly 33 births occur. Assume that 11 month is equal to 3030 days.

Based on a recent technology survey, 42%42\% of smartphone users enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for added security.

A consumer study found that 41%41\% of shoppers prefer buying organic groceries. Suppose 1515 shoppers are randomly selected. What is the probability that at least one of the selected shoppers prefers organic groceries?
