one customer has two chances to receive a prize. if the customer keeps the higher of the two prizes awarded, what is the probability the customer will receive at least $100?



Answer :

If the customer keeps the higher of the two prizes awarded, the probability the customer will receive at least $100 is 0.10

The probability that the customer will receive at least $100, P(X>100) is obtained below:

The probability that the customer will receive at least $100 is obtained by adding the corresponding probabilities of X=100 and, X=1000

Given from the table of probabilities, P(X=100)=0.08, and P(X=1,000)

P[X>100]=P(X=100)+P(X=1,000)

              =0.08+0.02

               =0.10
