Say she chooses topic A. She needs at least one book to arrive on time. The probability that no books arrive on time is 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.01 so the probability that at least one book arrives on time is 1 - 0.01 = 0.99.
Say she chooses topic B. She needs at least two books to arrive on time. The probability of no books arriving on time is 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.0001. The probability of exactly one book arriving on time is 4 x 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.9 = 0.0036 (binomial probability distribution formula - the 4 comes from 4C1). So the probability of her not getting enough books is 0.0001 + 0.0036 = 0.0037 and the probability she does get the books she needs on time is 1 - 0.0037 = 0.9963.
So she should choose topic B.

Michelle wishes to build a square pool in her backyard. She has saved enough to build a pool with the area of 150 square feet. W
frozen [14]
When it comes to finding the area of spaces, you must determine its shape. In this case, the shape of the pool is a square. From there, we will use the formula to find the area of a square.

Area = (side)^2

Since the square of the square's side is its total area, then if vice versa, we have to find the square root of the area to find the length. Thus,

Length = √150 = 5√6 = 12.25 ft
