A player is randomly dealt a sequence of 13 cards from a standard 52-card deck. Allsequences of 13 cards are equally likely. In an equivalent model, the cards are chosen anddealt one at a time. When choosing a card, the dealer is equally likely to pick any of thecards that remain in the deck.(a) What is the probability the 13th card dealt is a King?(b) Find the probability of the event that the 13th card dealt is the first King dealt.
