I will answer (a) only. 

    (a)  The sample space is the set of all sequences of integer numbers  { i%5B1%5D, i%5B2%5D, i%5B3%5D, . . . , i%5Bn%5D, 6 },
         that ending by 6.



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