A weapons manufacturer uses a liquid propellant to produce gun car- tridges. During the manufacturing process, the propellant can get mixed with another liquid to produce a contaminated cartridge. A University of South Florida statistician, hired by the company to inves- tigate the level of contamination in the stored cartridges, found that 23% of cartridges in a particular lot were contaminated. Suppose you randomly sample (without replacement) gun cartridges from this lot until you nd a contaminated one. Let x be the number of cartridges sampled until a contaminated one is found. It is known that the probability distribution for x is given by the formula: P(x) = (.23)(.77)x-1, x = 1,2,3,
A. Find p1.
B. Find p5.
C, Find P{xk's are greater than or equal to 2}.
