Question

(a) List the elements of the sample space for 5 drillings or less. Use W for “success”and F for “failure” in finding an oil well. Is this a discrete sample space Explain.
(b)Assign a value to each sample point and find the probability mass function for 5 drillings or less.
(c) Express the probability function as a formula for x = 1,2,3 ... ∞.
(d)Find P(X = 10) using the formula.
