At a telephone enquiry system,the number of phone calls regarding relevant enquiries follows a Poisson distribution with an average of $5$ phone calls during $10$-minute time intervals. The probability that there is at most one phone call during a $10$-minute time period is:

  • A
    $6e^{-5}$
  • B
    $5e^{-5}$
  • C
    $e^{-5}$
  • D
    $4e^{-5}$
