Find the following probabilities or percentages:

(a) Probability that a consumer recycles beverage bottles. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

\[ P(\text{Recycles}) = 0.33 \]

(b) Probability that a consumer who lives in a state with a deposit law does not recycle. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

\[ P(\text{Don't Recycle | Lives in Deposit Law State}) = 0.25 \]
