Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 30% of California residents have adequate earthquake supplies.

a) Ramon variable X denotes the number of the california residents that have adequate earthquake insurance

B) x can take value 1 ,2 ,3 ......

C)The distribution of random variable is geometric distribution with parameter p=0.3

The pmf of geometric distribution is

P(X=x)=0.3(1-0.3)^{x-1} , x=1,2,3...

D)P(X=1) or P(X=2)=P(X=1)+P(X=2)

P(X=1) or P(X=2)=0.3(1-0.3)^{1-1}+0.3(1-0.3)^{2-1}=0.51

E)

P(X \geq 3)=1-P(X

F)

E(X)=\frac{1}{p}

p is the resident who does not have adequate earthquake supplies.

p = 1-0.3 = 0.7

E(X)=\frac{1}{0.7}=1.42

G)E(X)=\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{0.3}=3.33
