Step-by-step explanation:

substitute for x and y:

Answer:
a) 10 weeks
b) P(k≤2)=0.190
c) P(k>17)=0.167
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved applying the geometric distribution.
The probability of needing k weeks to find an acceptable apartment can be written as:

a) The expected value of this distribution is:

Answer: 10 weeks
b) The probability of finding an acceptable department in the first 2 weeks is:

c) We have to calculate P(k>17)

Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:

You substitute
for y in the second equation, because it is equal to y.

Alternate Method:
set both equations equal to y

Then you have

And you substitute one of the equations in for y in the other one

multiply both sides by 2

and solve
