Answer:0.9966

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Probability that flash light does not  work is P_o=0.15

If owner has 3 three flashlights then

Probability that atleast one of them works =1-P(\text{none of them works})

Probability that flashlight will work =1-P_o=1-0.15

=0.85

Required Probability=1-0.15\times 0.15\times 0.15

=1-0.003375

=0.9966

Now, Probability that second works given that first works is given by

P=P(\text{First works})\times P(\text{Second works})

P=0.85\times 0.85

P=0.7225

What is the value of p?<br><br> A. 125°<br> B. 45°<br> C. 35°<br> D. 550
Vikki [24]

Answer:

C- 35 °

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angle adjacent to 90° angle = 90° (supplementary angles of a line segment).

Interior angle adjacent to 125° angle = 55° (supplementary angles of a line segment).

Sum of two interior angles of the triangle = 55+90 = 145°

∠p = 180° - 145° = 35°
