Detailed Solution

Average of 5 telephone calls per hour at a cost of 2 Rs Per cell.

    λ=5

Now P(X=9)=e-λ.λrr!

In any hour the cost of the calls exceeds a sum of 4 Rs.

Calls exceed by 42=2

Required Probability =1-P(X=0)-P(X=1)-P(X=2)

     =1-5 e-50!-51 e-51!-52 e-52! =1-e-5 1+5+252 =1-e-5 372 =1-372e5 =2e5-372e5
