From textbook:
"Let X have a negative binomial distribution with parameters r
and p such that:
Find E[X] and Var[X] without using the definition; instead,
consider how X can be written as a sum of independent random
variables."
Question: How do I do this?
p(k) = p' (1-p)*-, k=r,r+1,..
6. Imagine a negative binomial random variable X with p = 0.3 and r-3. (If you want to use R to determine the probabilities, be aware that the definition of a negative random variable is slightly different from the definition given in our text). Determine the following: a) E(X) b) V(X) c) P(X-20) d) P (X=19) e) P(X = 21)
