A basketball player attempts successive free throws until he succeeds in making a basket. Suppose the probability of success of each attempt is 0.7; thus, the probability of exactly n failures before the first success is (0.3)n(0.7), n ? 0. What is the probability that the number of failures before the first successful free throw is odd? Enter just a reduced fraction.
Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).
