The top layer of the earth is called the crust, this is made up of tectonic plates which shift and move in direction, it is the collisions and abrasions caused by the friction forces eroding the edges of these plates which push us the crust, and pour out lava and other rock causing the mountain ranges to form, this process continually happens and over millions of years has changed the surface of the planet, created vast mountains and continents. The lower spaces are those which the oceans fill, and the higher regions above sea are the continents.

A problem in mathematics is given to three students A, B and C whose chances of solving it are 1/3, 1/4 and 1/5 respectively. Fi
Tanya [424]

Answer:

i. 3/5

ii. 2/5

Explanation:

Solving the problem by any of the students A, B and C is an independent event as solution by one does not restrict the other one from solving

However, the problem will be solved if even one of them solves the question

Now Probability of not solving the question by A, B and C are

PA (not solving a problem) - 1-1/3 = 2/3

PB (not solving a problem) - 1-1/4 = 3/4

PC (not solving a problem) - 1-1/5 = 4/5

ii) Probability of not solving - 2/3*3/4*4/5 = 2 *1/5 = 2/5

i) Probability of solving - 1- Probability of not solving

= 1 - 2/5 = 3/5
