Problem 1 (16 points). Suppose that X and Y are independent random variables and that Y follows a geometric distribution with parameter p. Assume that X takes only nonnegative integer values, and let Gx(z) be the probability generating function of X. (We make no additional assumptions about the distribution of X.) Show that P(X<Y) = Gx(1- p). Clearly indicate the step(s) in your argument that use the assumption that X and Y are independent.
