Let X be a discrete random variable with geometric distribution.
 Let x be the number of tests and p the probability of success in each trial, then the probability distribution is:
 P (X = x) = p * (1-p) ^ (x-1). With x = (1, 2, 3 ... n).
 This function measures the probability P of obtaining the first success at the x attempt.
 We need to know the probability of obtaining the first success at the third trial.
  Where a success is defined as a customer buying online.
 The probability of success in each trial is p = 0.3.
 So:
 P (X = 3) = 0.3 * (1-0.3) ^ (3-1)
 P (X = 3) = 0.147
 The probability of obtaining the first success at the third trial is 14.7%

Please help me! What is x and y? Thank you!
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

x=3. y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

So, to solve x and y, we need to take the equivelent sides of the two triangles, take their equations, and solve them.

So to find what x equals, we can take the 13, and make it equal to the 4x+1:

13=4x+1

Subtract the one from both sides:

12=4x

Divide both sides by 4:

3=x

Or

<u>x=3</u>

So we know the x value is 3.

Now lets solve for y using the bottom equations:

2x+y=8x-2y

Subtract 1y from both sides:

2x=8x-3y

Subtract 8x from both sides:

-6x=-3y

Divide both sides by -6:

x=1/2y

So we already know that x=3, lets plug that in for x, and solve for y:

3=1/2y

Or

1/2y=3

Multiply both sides by 2 to get 1y:

<u>y=6</u>

So we know that y is equal to 6.

Hope this helps!
