Requirements for Geometric Settings

• Each observation falls into one of two
  categories success and failure
• The probability of success (p) is the same for
  each observation
• Observations are independent
• The random variable is the number of trials
  required to obtain the first success.

Recall Geometric Sequence

• Geometric sequence a, ar, ar2,
• Sum of an infinite series

4

• P(Xn) (1-p)(n-1)p
• P(Xgtn) (1-p)n
• Sum of Geometric Distribution 1
• µ1/p
