7. A gambler pays $10 to enter a game in which two coins are tossed. The gambler receives $25, $5 or nothing if two heads, one head or no heads appear, respectively. (a) Determine the expected return per game (ignore the $10 cost of playing). (b) The gambler decides to play until winning the $25 prize. Letting X denote the number of games played until two heads appear (the final game is the Xth game), find the probability function f(x) of X, show that its sum over all possible values of X is one, and find the expected value µ of X. (Note: this is not the expected return on this version of the game. Note too that X here is not quite the same as a geometric random variable, as it was defined in the lecture notes; however, thinking about such random variables will be helpful here).
