Cards are picked sequentially without replacement from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards until either all SPADES are found or all CLUBS are found. Let X denote the number of cards picked. Find E(X) using indicator random variables.

A particular lake is known to be one of the best places to catch a certain type of fish. In this table, x = number of fish caught in a 6-hour period. The percentage data are the percentages of fishermen who caught x fish in a 6-hour period while fishing from shore. A) Find the probability that a fisherman selected at random fishing from shore catches one or more fish in a 6-hour period. B) Find the probability that a fisherman selected at random fishing from shore catches two or more fish in a 6-hour period. C) Compute ?, the expected value of the number of fish caught per fisherman in a 6-hour period (round "at least 4" to 4). D) Compute ?, the standard deviation of the number of fish caught per fisherman in a 6-hour period (round "at least 4" to 4).
