3 The numbers of CD players sold in a shop on three consecutive weekends were 7,6 and 2 . It may be assumed that sales of CD players occur randomly and that nobody buys more than one CD player at a time. The number of CD players sold on a randomly chosen weekend is denoted by \(X\).

1. How appropriate is the Poisson distribution as a model for \(X\) ? Now assume that a Poisson distribution with mean 5 is an appropriate model for \(X\).
2. Find
   1. \(\mathrm { P } ( X = 6 )\),
   2. \(\mathrm { P } ( X \geqslant 8 )\). The number of integrated sound systems sold in a weekend at the same shop can be assumed to have the distribution \(\operatorname { Po } ( 7.2 )\).
3. Find the probability that on a randomly chosen weekend the total number of CD players and integrated sound systems sold is between 10 and 15 inclusive.
4. State an assumption needed for your answer to part (c) to be valid.
5. Give a reason why the assumption in part (d) may not be valid in practice.
