Let X1 be thenumber of cards appearing before the first ace, X2 the number ofcards between the first and second ace (not counting either ace),X3 the number between the second and third ace, X4 the numberbetween the third and forth ace, and X5 the number after the lastace. It can be shown that each of these random variables Xi had thesame distribution, i=1,2,...,5, and you can assume this to betrue.

a) Write down a formula for P(Xi=k), 0≤k≤48

b) Show that E(Xi)= 9.6 (Hint:Don't use your answer to parta)
