The probability that the tenth person randomly interviewed in that city is the fifth one to own a dog = 0.051
Given,
Consider the interview of a person is a trial.
Lets consider it success if a person owns a dog and consequently , a person without a dog will be a failure.'
Let the random variable X represent the number of persons to be interviewed to get 5 dog owner: in other words, to get 5 successors.
Probability of a success in each trial is p = 0.3. Therefore probability of a failure in each trial is q = 1 - p = 0.7 .
Because trials are independent. X has a negative binomial distribution with parameters k = 5, p = 0.3
P(X =x ) = b(x: k, p) =
where, x = k , k + 1 , k + 2......(1)
Now, Lets find the probability that the tenth person randomly interviewed in that city is the fifth one to own a dog
Using equation (1), we get:
P(X = 10) = b(10: 5, 0.3)
= [(10-1) (5 - 1)]
= [(9)(4)]
= 0.05146
Hence, The probability that the tenth person randomly interviewed in that city is the fifth one to own a dog = 0.051

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is function composition. We will take the g function and plug it into the f function wherever we see an x. That will look like this when it's done but before it's simplified:
and that can be simplified down to
The domain of this function will be all real numbers EXCEPT for the one(s) that cause the denominator to become undefined. Set the denominator equal to 0 and solve for x:
5x - 4 = 0 so
5x = 4 and
x = 4/5
In other words, D = {x | x ≠ 4/5}
