Suppose you are testing products for defects and find that one in every 17 products exhibits a defect. Let T be the geometric RV modeling the number of products tested until a defect is found.
(a) What is the parameter q for T?
(b) Compute the probability that the first product tested exhibits a defect.
(c) Compute the probability that the first defective product is one of the first 10 tested.
(d) Compute the probability that the first defective product is not found until 8 or more products are tested.
