    b. Poisson

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The probability that exactly 4 cars will arrive in a five minute interval can be calculated through Poisson distribution because when the rate of change or time period is concerned Poisson distribution is a suitable choice. In other words, when events occur randomly over a specific interval time or space or length.
