30 The mean number of automobiles entering a mountain tunnel per two-minute period is one. An excessive number of cars entering the tunnel during a brief period of time produces a hazardous situation. Assume that the tunnel is observed during thirteen two-minute intervals, thus giving thirteen independent observations Y₁, Y 2, ..., Y 13, on the Poisson random variable. Find the probability that Y > 4 during at least one of the thirteen two-minute intervals. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question.
