Treatting the question as a geometric function :

Using the relation :

1 / p

Expected number of flips until first tail :

1 / P = 1/ 0.64 = 1.5625

E(x) = expected number of flips until first tail = 1.563

RSB [31]

Answer:

k =4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

k - 4.8=0.32 - 5.4k\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}100\\k\times\:100-4.8\times\:100=0.32\times\:100-5.4k\times\:100\\\\Refine\\100k-480=32-540k\\\\Add\: 480\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\100k-480+480=32-540k+480\\\\Simplify\\100k=-540k+512\\\\\mathrm{Add\:}540k\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\100k+540k=-540k+512+540k\\\\Simplify\\640k=512\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}640\\\frac{640k}{640}=\frac{512}{640}\\\\k=\frac{4}{5}
