It was stated in the problem that there are t collectors. Therefore, there are (t + 1) collectors including Sergio. Since each collectors will donate the same number of paintings and their total number of donated paintings is 48, each should contribute 48/(t + 1) paintings. So, after the donation Sergio will be left with 79 – 48/(t + 1) paintings.

Airida [17]

Answer:

<em>Find the probability of success in a single trial and then think about the nature of the problem (when do we stop).  </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe that in the single trial, we have (8 4) possibilities of choosing our set of balls. If we have chosen two white balls and two black balls, the probability of doing that is simply  

p=(4 2)*(4 2)/(8 4)

This is well know Hyper geometric distribution. Now, define random variable X that marks the number of trials that have been needed to obtain the right combination (two white and two black balls). From the nature of the problem, observe that X has Geometric distribution with parameter p that has been calculated above. Hence  

P(X = n) = (1— p)^n-1 *( p )
