Suppose you toss a sequence of coins, the -th of which comes up heads with probability , where . Calculate the probability of the event that infinitely many heads occur.
Suppose you repeatedly and independently roll a pair of fair dice and each time record the sum of the dice. What is the probability that an outcome of 5 appears before an outcome of 7 ? Justify your answer.
