Explanation:

Let X be the random variable of number of people that need to be tested to detect 2 with the gene.  X is a negative binomial random variable with te parameters: p=0.1  r= 2  The probability mass function of X is given by:

f(x) = (x-1/1) x 0.9 x-2 x o.1 2, x>= 2

calculate:  

p(x>=4) = 1-P (x=3) - P (x=2) =0.972

E(X) = 2/0.1 = 20
