Suppose the counts recorded by a Geiger counter follow a Poisson process with an average of two counts per minute.

(a) What is the probability that there are no counts in a 30- second interval?

(b) What is the probability that the first count occurs in less than 10 seconds?

(c) What is the probability that the first count occurs between 1 and 2 minutes after start-up?
