4 The number of floods in a certain river plain is known to have a Poisson distribution. It is known that up until 10 years ago the mean number of floods per year was 0.32 . During the last 10 years there were 6 floods. Test at the \(1 \%\) significance level whether there is evidence of an increase in the mean number of floods per year.
