Over the last 135 years, there have been 5 earthquakes of seismic intensity over 7.0 in the kanto region of japan. scientists are computing the probability of an earthquake within a period of time using a poisson distribution. seeing as there have been 5 earthquakes in 135 years, this is exactly the rate they use for their calculations. answer the following questions. (a) what is the probability there is exactly one earthquake of intensity over 7.0 in the next year? (b) what is the probability there are more than or equal to one earthquakes of intensity over 7.0 in the next year? (c) re-do parts (a) and (b) for 10 years, 30 years, and 50 years. what do you observe? (d) what is the probability the next earthquake does not happen for another 10, 30, and 50 years?
