Each day, John performs the following experiment. He flips a fair coin repeatedly until he gets a 'T' and coun the number of coin flips needed. (a) Approximate the probability that in a (non-leap) year there are at least 2 days when he needed strictly mo than 8 coin flips. (b) Approximate the probability that in a year there are strictly more than 94 days when he needed exactly 2 coi flips.
