Answer:

The probability mass function (pmf) of X is:

P(X=k)={{k+r-1}\choose k}\cdot (1-p)^{k}\cdot p^{r};\ k=1,2,3,...

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> is said to be a Negative Binomial random variable.

The random variable <em>X</em> is defined as the number of failures in a series independent and identical Bernoulli trials, before a specific number of success takes place.

For example, consider rolling a 5 on a six-sided die as the success and any other number as failure. Then the number of rolls before 5 occurs three times in a row can be defined as a negative binomial experiment.

The probability mass function of a negative binomial random variable <em>X</em> is:

P(X=k)={{k+r-1}\choose k}\cdot (1-p)^{k}\cdot p^{r};\ k=1,2,3,...

Here,

<em>k</em> = number of successes

<em>r</em> = number of failures

<em>p</em> = probability of success

What is 137% of 720? Round to the nearest hundredth
elena-s [515]
-- 137% means 1.37.
-- "of" means "times".

1.37 x 720 = exactly <em>986.4 .</em>

The next greater hundredth is 986.41 .
The next smaller hundredth is 986.39 .
Neither of those is nearer to 986.4 than 986.4 already is,
so no rounding is necessary..
