+Mighty Gumball has noticed a problem with their gumball dispensers. They have taken a sample of 30 machines, and found that the mean number of malfunctions is 15. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the number of malfunctions per month.

+위는 Poisson distribution이므로 $X \sim Po(15)$ 이고 $E(X) = \lambda$이고 $Var(X) = \lambda$이다. 따라서
+$$\text {confidence interval} = (\overline{X} - c * se, \;\; \overline{X} + c * se)$$
+$$\text{se} = \sqrt{(15/30)}$$ 이고
+$$\text{c} = 2.58 (3) $$ 이므로
+\begin{eqnarray*}
+\text {confidence interval} & = & (\overline{X} - c * se, \;\; \overline{X} + c * se) \\
+& = & (15 - 3 * \sqrt{(15/30)}, \;\; 15 + 3 * \sqrt{(15/30)}) \\
+& = & (15 - 2.58 * \sqrt{(15/30)}, \;\; 15 + 2.58 * \sqrt{(15/30)}) \\
+& = & (15 - 2.58 * 0.707, \;\; 15 + 2.58 * 0.707) \\
+& = & (15 - 1.824, \;\; 15 + 1.824) \\
