A consumer looking to buy a used red Miata car will call dealerships until she finds a dealership that carries the car. She estimates the probability that any independent dealership will have the car will be 28%. We are interested in the number of dealerships she must call.
On average, how many dealerships would we expect her to have to call until she finds one that has the car?
Find the probability that she must call at most 4 dealerships.
Find the probability that she must call 3 or 4 dealerships.
= the number of dealers she calls until she finds one with a used red Miata
