Excuse me, please!
I have a question about Probability. I have tried to do this but quite hard to me.
Hope that U can help me as soon as possible.
Look forward to seeing your answer!
As part of a promotional scheme in Arizona and New Mexico, a company distributing frozen foods will award a grand prize of $100,000 to some person sending in his or her name on an entry blank, with the option of including a label from one of the company’s product. A breakdown of the 225,000 entries received is shown in the following:
With label Without label
Arizona 120,000 42,000
New Mexico 30,000 33,000
If the winner of the grand prize is choosen by lot, but the Drawing is rigged so that by including a label the probability of winning the grand prize is trippled, what are the probabilities that the grand prize will be won by someone who
(a) included a label
(b) is from New Mexico?
Thanks a lot
Because I don't know how to deal with this phrase :"the Drawing is rigged so that by including a label the probability of winning the grand prize is trippled".
please help me deal with this probability problem!
