Can anyone tell me what is the probability of two people writing a 50 word paragraph to be exactly the same?

\m25 answer: Your approach to part b is sound. For part a, can you start with the definition of conditional probability as a fraction, and see what cancels?
Hint: look for an "n choose k" coefficient; what is the other name for "n choose k"?

For problem 4, can you give some more intuition on how to approach this?
For part a, I can see that the distibution associated with Z = \sum x_i is also a Poisson Distribition, but I can't figure out how to use that to get the Conditional distribution.
For part b, I'm assuming that \sum x_i is the sufficient statistic, since we were supposed to prove that in part a. I'm guessing that we should use an initial estimator of P(x_i = 0 event) = 1 for x1 = 0, 0 for x1 != 0.
This would be an unbiased estimator, and then we could find what P(x_i = 0 event| \sum x_i = A) which should give the MVUE.
I think I have outlined the idea of how to do it, but I can't seem to do the specific computations to get the results. Could you please offer some ideas on how to actually compute these values. Thanks.

/m21 answer: Constant variance does not imply zero covariance. However, you may assume that all estimators are independent here. In other words, each estimator has a different argument x where all the x are independent of each other.
