A charity organization hosts a raffle drawing at a fund raising event. The organization sells 2500 tickets at a price of $8 each. Winning tickets are randomly selected, with 30 prizes of $100, 10 prizes of $500, and 1 grand prize of $8000. Suppose you buy one ticket. Let the random variable X represent your net gain from playing the game once (remember that the net gain should include the cost of the ticket). 1. Use the table below to help you construct a probability distribution for all of the possible values of X and their probabilities.
