#18. Cards from an ordinary deck of 52 playing cards are turned face up one at a time. If the first card is an ace, or the second a deuce, or the third a three, or …, or the thirteenth a king, or fourteenth an ace, and so on, we say that a match occurs. Note that we do not require that the (13n + 1)th card be any particular ace for a match to occur but only that it be an ace. Compute the expected number of matches that occur.

A lake contains 4 distinct types of fish
#18. A lake contains 4 distinct types of fish. Suppose that each fish caught is equally likely to be any one of these types. Let Y denote the number of fish that need be caught to obtain at least one of each type. (a) Give an interval (a, b) such that P{a ≤ Y ≤ b} ≥ 0.90. (b) Using the one-sided Chebyshev inequality, how many fish need we plan on catching so as to be at least 90 percent certain of obtaining at least one of each type?
