expectation and variance
Hi can anyone help me with this question
A sequence of identicak and independent benoulli trials, each with probability p of success, is performed. Let the random variable X be the number of trials up to and including the nth success.
By expressing X as a sum of geometricrandom variables, or otherwise, find the expectation and variance of X.
