If a procedure meets all of the conditions of a binomial distribution except the number of trials is not​ fixed, then the geometric distribution can be used. The probability of getting the first success on the xth trial is given by ​ P(x) = p(1−p)x−1​
where p is the probability of success on any one trial. Subjects are randomly selected for a health survey. The probability that someone is a universal donor​ (with group O and type Rh negative​ blood) is 0.15. Find the probability that the first subject to be a universal blood donor is the fifth person selected.

0.0783

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting the first success on xtg trial ; this is a geometric distribution :

P(x) = p(1−p)^x−1

The probability of being a universal donor , p = 0.15

The probability of obtaining someone who is a universal donor on 5th trial will be :

P(5) = 0.15(1 - 0.15)^(5 - 1)

P(5) = 0.15(0.85)^4

P(5) = 0.15(0.52200625)

P(5) = 0.0783009375

P(5) = 0.0783

c. prove the lengths are the same.

step-by-step explanation:

you need to prove the segments are congruent. congruent segments have the same length. find the lengths of the segments using the distance formula, and compare them.

answer: c. prove the lengths are the same.
