— 2. Which of the following is a true statement? a. b. c. The binomial setting requires that there are only two possible outcomes for each trial, while the geometric setting

permits more than two outcomes. A geometric random variable takes on integer values from 0 to n. d. If X is a geometric random variable and the probability of success is 0.85, then the probability distribution of X will be skewed to the left, since 0.85 is closer to 1 than to 0. An important difference between binomial and geometric random variables is that there is a fixed number of trials in a binomial setting, and the number of trials varies in a geometric setting. The distribution of every binomial random variable is skewed to the right. e.
