Mason never has a pencil when test day rolls around. Because the classmates are tired of having to supply pencils for Mason, only 15% of students will give Mason a pencil when asked. Today is test day and Mason begins asking randomly selected students for a pencil. Let Y = the number of students Mason asks until he finds someone who will give him a pencil. Describe this probability distribution. Be sure to check the appropriate conditions.

What is the probability that the third person asked is the first person who gives him a pencil?
