(5 points) in the united states, 82% of the population claim english as their mother tongue. choose a person from the united states at random and a person from canada at random, independently of each other. what is the probability that both have english as their mother tongue?

0.67

Step-by-step explanation:

The times that I choose a person and it claim english as its mother tongue is a random variable with geometric distribution (in this case, the parameter is p=0.82).

Then:

P(X=2) = (0.82) x (0.82) = 0.6724
