<span>Probability = 0.063 Fourth try = 0.0973 Let X be the number of failed attempts at passing the test before the student passes. This is a negative binomial or geometric variable with x â {0, 1, 2, 3, . . .}, p = P(success) = 0.7 and the number of successes to to observe r = 1. Thus the pmf is nb(x; 1, p) = (1 â’ p) xp. The probability P that the student passes on the third try means that there were x = 2 failed attempts or P = nb(2, ; 1, .7) = (.3)2 (.7) = 0.063 . The probability that the student passes before the third try is that there were two or fewer failed attmpts, so P = P(X ≤ 2) = nb(0, ; 1, .7) + nb(1, ; 1, .7) + nb(2, ; 1, .7) = (.3)0 (.7) + (.3)1 (.7) + (.3)2 (.7) = 0.973 .</span>

What fraction is equal to the length of the red segment? Please answer in fraction form and how to get the answer
strojnjashka [21]
Answer:
The red segment is from 1/4 to 3/4.
3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4
2/4 = 1/2
1/2

This answer can also be found by seeing there are four equal boxes making up the one larger box, since two out of the four boxes are filled then the fraction would be 2/4, which simplifies to 1/2
