Step-by-step explanation:

since it is in the same line as DE, both have the same slope.

the slope is the ratio of "y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point on the line to another.

and so by using the coordinates of D and E

x changes by +4 (from 8 to 12).

y changes by -8 (from 32 to 24).

the slope is therefore

-8/+4 = -2

Answer:

The probability is 0.0428

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's remember that the binomial distribution is given by the formula:

$P(X=k) =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}n\\k\end{array}\right] p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}$ where k is the number of successes in n trials and p is the probability of success.

However, the problem tells us that when there isn't a number of trials fixed, we can use the geometric distribution and the formula for getting the first success on the xth trial becomes:

$P(X=x) = p(1-p)^{x-1}\\$

The problem asks us to find the probability of the first success on the 4th trial (given that the first subject to be a universal blood donor will be the fourth person selected)

Using this formula with the parameters given, we have:

p = 0.05

x = 4

Substituting these parameters in the formula and solving it, we get:

$P(X=4) = 0.05(1-0.05)^{4-1}\\P(X=4) = 0.05 (0.95)^{3}\\P(X=4) = 0.05(.8573)\\P(X=4) = 0.0428$
