The random variable \(X\) has the distribution \(\operatorname{Po}(1.5)\).

(a) Find \(\mathrm P(X\ge3)\). [2]

(b) Find the probability that the sum of three independent values of \(X\) is between 3 and 5 inclusive. [3]

The sum of a large number, \(n\), of values of \(X\) is denoted by \(T\). Using a suitable approximation, it was found that \(\mathrm P(T>330)=0.0391\), correct to 3 significant figures.

(c) Find the value of \(n\). [5]
