Concept explainers
A player in the Powerball lottery picks five different integers between 1 and 69, inclusive, and a sixth integer between 1 and 26, which may duplicate one of the earlier five integers. The player wins the jackpot if all six numbers match the numbers drawn.
- What is the probability that a player wins the jackpot?
- What is the probability that a player wins Si,000,000, which is the prize for matching the first five numbers, but not the sixth number, drawn?
- What is the probability that a player wins S100 by matching exactly three of the first five and the sixth numbers drawn, or four of the first five numbers, but not the sixth number, drawn?
- What is the probability that a player wins a prize of $4, which is the prize when the player matches the sixth number, and either one or none of the first five numbers drawn?
