.

I will answer (a) only.

    (a)  The sample space is the set of all sequences of integer numbers  { , , , . . . , , 6 },
         that ending by 6.



         So, in these sequences, the integers  are all between 1 an 5, inclusive, and 6 is the first and the only number "6" 
         in such sequences.
