Solution

Using a cumulative poisson distribution table or technology, matching          
          
u = the mean number of successes =    1.3      
          
x = the maximum number of successes =    1      
          
Then the cumulative probability is          
          
P(at most   1   ) =    0.626823124 [ANSWER]
