An article reports that 1 in 500 people carry the defective gene that causes inherited colon cancer. In a sample of 1500 individuals, what is the approximate distribution of the number who carry this gene?

a. Use the Poisson approximation to calculate the approximate probability that between 5 and 9 (inclusive) carry the gene.
b. Use the Poisson approximation to calculate the approximate probability that at least 9 carry the gene.
