The probability that the first interview occurs on the fifth resume that you sent is 0.2592.

According to the given question.

The probability of being called for an interview, p = 0.40.

So, the probability of not being called for an interview, q = 1 - 0.40 = 0.60

As we know that binomial distribution summarizes the number of trials, or observations when each trial has the same probability of attaining one particular value. The binomial distribution determines the probability of observing a specified number of successful outcomes in a specified number of trials.

Therefore, the probability that the first interview occurs on the fifth resume that you send out

= ^{5} C_{1} (0.40)^{1} (0.60)^{4}

= 5(0.40)(0.1296)

= 0.2592

Hence, the probability that the first interview occurs on the fifth resume that you sent is 0.2592.

<span>To find the union of the two sets simply write all of the elements together into one big set. Remove any duplicate entries (if there are any).</span>

A \cup B = \{x,y,z,a,b,c\}

--------------------------------------------------------------

The intersection of the two sets A and B is the set of elements that are in BOTH sets. In this case, there is no overlap so we have

A \cap B = \{ \} = \varnothing
which is a way of saying "the empty set"
