Use the Geometric Distribution to complete the following problem: The State of Alaska wants to find someone who speaks Yup'ik to fill a job. It is known that 4% of the applicant pool speak Yup'ik. Let X represent the number of applicants until someone is found." (X represents the photo number that is actually liked.) Find: Mean of X: What is the probability that it will take exactly 19 applicants before they find a Yup'ik Speaker. What is the probability that it will take at most 49 applicants before they find a Yup'ik Speaker.
