Question: Let X n be a binomial negative random variable with n degrees of freedom or Binomial (p, -n) with 0 (or equal) 2 we have:

Let Xn be a binomial negative random variable with n degrees of freedom or Binomial (p, -n) with 0(or equal) 2 we have:

n/(n+Xn) >(or equal) (n-1)/(n-1+Xn) and E[(n-1)/(n-1+Xn)] = 1-p

Now show that if Y1,Y2,Y3, ... , is a sequence of i.i.d. Geometric(p) random variables, then we can simulate Xn as:

Xn = Y1 ... Yn

Finally, show this implies that:

lim (n-->inf) (n/n+Xn) = lim (n-->inf) (n-1)/(n-1+Xn) = 1-p
