12. No Pass, No Play Under the “no pass, no play”

Suppose the probability that an athlete who has not previously been disqualified will be disqualified is .15 and the probability that an athlete who has been disqualified before will be disqualified again in the next time period is .5. If 30% of the athletes have been disqualified before, what is the unconditional probability that an athlete will be disqualified during the next grading period?
