A nuclear power plant has two independent safety systems. The probability the first will not operate properly in an emergency P

(A) is 0.01, and the probability the second will not operate P (B) in an emergency is 0.03. What is the probability that in an emergency both of the safety systems will not operate?

Step-by-step explanation:

they are independent systems, so in case of an emergency both systems will activate.

this is like rolling 2 dice and asking for the probability that both will show 1.

the probability that both will fail is the product of the individual probabilities for failure :

0.01 × 0.03 = 0.0003

so, the third answer option is correct.

FYI - the probability for 2 dice to both roll 1 is

1/6 × 1/6 = 1/36

Pls, help me I don't understand! Very urgent!!!! (I have an attachment so you know what the problem looks like)
vredina [299]

1. A pair of supplementary angles: ∠IJH and ∠HJG, ∠IJH and ∠HJG

2. A pair of complementary angles: ∠JGK and ∠KGC, ∠FGE and ∠EGD

3. A pair of vertical angles: ∠AKB and ∠KJG , ∠IJH and ∠KJG

Solution:

<em>Two angles are said to be supplementary when they add up to 180°.</em>

We know that,

Sum of the adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°

∠IJK + ∠KJG = 180°

Therefore ∠IJK and ∠KJG are supplementary angles.

∠IJH + ∠HJG = 180°

Therefore ∠IJH and ∠HJG are supplementary angles.

<em>Two angles are said to be complementary when they add up to 90°.</em>

Given ∠CGD = 90°, ∠CGJ = 90°

∠JGK + ∠KGC = ∠CGJ

∠JGK + ∠KGC = 90°

Therefore ∠JGK and ∠KGC are complementary angles.

∠FGE + ∠EGD = 90°

Therefore ∠FGE and ∠EGD are complementary angles.

<em>If two lines are intersecting, then the angles opposite to vertical point are vertical angles and they are equal.</em>

∠AKB = ∠KJG (vertically opposite)

∠IJH = ∠KJG (vertically opposite)
