Answer:

0.00673

Step-by-step explanation:

As each of the 10000 leaflets has equal chance on landing into 1 of the 2000 blocks, this means each leaflet has a probability of 1/2000 to land on the 1st block, 1/2000 to land on the 2nd lock, 1/2000 to land on the 3rd block, and so on.

The probability that a particular block will receive no leaflet is chance of each leaflets to land on the other 1999 blocks, which has a chance of 1999/2000. For all 10000 leaflets to happen like this independently, then the total probability is

\left(\frac{1999}{2000}\right)^{10000} = 0.00673

Find the measure of &lt;1. A) 104 degrees, B) 76 degrees , C) 38 degrees<br> Help due in 5 minutes
Annette [7]
It’s c because the triangle is a isosceles triangle meaning both base angles are the same! So a triangle equals 180°. So you subtract 104 from 180. Then divide it by 2 since the base angles are the same

180-104= 76

76/2=38°
