Answer:

0.064

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of days in a year = 365

Mean rate of false alarm in a year = λ = 365 * 0.2 = 73

Standard deviation, σ = sqrt(λ) = sqrt(73) = 8.54 (for large λ value)

Using the relation :

P(x < 60): (60 - 73) / 8.54

P(x < 60) = - 1.52

P(Z < - 1.52) = 0.06426 (Z probability calculator

= 0.064
