6 The diagrams illustrate all or part of the probability distributions of the discrete random variables \(V , W , X , Y\) and \(Z\). \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{56ca7462-d061-48d3-bc5f-274d925e4e34-4_419_365_370_296} \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{56ca7462-d061-48d3-bc5f-274d925e4e34-4_419_376_370_838} \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{56ca7462-d061-48d3-bc5f-274d925e4e34-4_419_362_370_1400} \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{56ca7462-d061-48d3-bc5f-274d925e4e34-4_421_359_879_580} \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{56ca7462-d061-48d3-bc5f-274d925e4e34-4_419_355_881_1142}
  1. One of these variables has the distribution \(\operatorname { Geo } \left( \frac { 1 } { 2 } \right)\). State, with a reason, which variable this is.
  2. One of these variables has the distribution \(\mathrm { B } \left( 4 , \frac { 1 } { 2 } \right)\). State, with reasons, which variable this is. \(760 \%\) of the voters at a certain polling station are women. Voters enter the polling station one at a time. The number of voters who enter, up to and including the first woman, is denoted by \(X\).
