A) 15.4%
B) 16.3%
C) 17.8%
D) 18.2%

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The probability of x = 2 in a Poisson distribution with m = 0.85 is calculated using the formula P(x) = (e^(-m) * m^x) / x!. Substituting the values, P(2) = (e^(-0.85) * 0.85^2) / 2! = 0.154, which is 15.4% when expressed as a percentage.
