A pediatrician wishes to recruit 5 couples, each of whom is expecting their first child, to participate in a new natural childbirth regimen. The probability that a randomly selected couple agrees to participate is 0.2. What is the distribution to model the number of couples who do not agree until 5 are found who agree to participate

Inverse binomial distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

For each couple, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they agree to participate, or they do not. The probability of a couple agreeing to participate is independent of any other couple accepting. This means that we take the binomial distribution as a basis to solve this question.

However, we want to find the number of trials needed to have a number of successes, in this case 5, that is, we do not have a fixed number of trials, which means that the inverse binomial distribution is used, and is the answer to this question.

d. all of the above
