1. New Jersey Lottery Let A denote the event of placing a $1 straight bet on the New Jersey Pick 3 lottery and winning. There are 1000 different ways that you can select the three digits (with repetition allowed) in this lottery, and only one of those three-digit numbers will be the winner. What is the value of P1A2? What is the value of P1A2?

Respuesta :

Answer:

P1A2= 0.001

P1A'2=0.999

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = number of ways A occurs/ number of different simple events

P1(A2) =1/1000=0.001

P1A2 = 1-(1/1000)= 999/1000 = 0.999

Probabilities are used to determine the outcome of an event.

The probability of winning is 0.001

Given

[tex]n = 1000[/tex] --- ways

Only one of the 1000 digits is a winning digit.

So, the probability of winning, P(A) is:

[tex]P(A) = \frac{1}{n}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(A) = \frac{1}{1000}[/tex]

Express as a decimal

[tex]P(A) = 0.001[/tex]

Hence, the probability of winning is 0.001
