Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

Consider a geometric probability distribution for a discrete random variable X with probability of success = 0.6.Find P(X>3)

2

Formula:

Probability P(X=x)=\$(1-p)^(x-1) × p\$

3

Step

From the given data

x=3,p=0.6

4

Clue

P(X>3)

P(X≤4)

5

Step

P(X≤4)

1 - P(X≤3)

6

Step

P(X≤4)

P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3)

7

Step

P(X>3)

P(x=1) + P(x=2) + P(X=3)

8

Step

Substitute all the values in P(X≤2)

\$(1-0.6)^(1-1) × 0.6\$ + \$(1-0.6)^(2-1) × 0.6\$ + \$(1-0.6)^(3-1) × 0.6\$

9

Step

Simplification P(X>3)

[1 × 0.6] + [0.4 × 0.6] + [0.16 × 0.6]

10

Step

Simplification P(X>3)

\$0.6 + 0.24 + 0.096\$

11

Step

P(X>3)

0.936
