Question

The probability that a person cannot read is 0.85 what is the probability that 2 people selected at random will be unable to read

Answers

  1. Answer: 0.7225

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since the probability that a person cannot read is 0.85. The probability that 2 people selected at random will be unable to read will be gotten by multiplying the value of the probability given twice. This will be

    = P(not read) × P(not read)

    = 0.85 × 0.85

    = 0.7225

    Therefore, the probability that 2 people selected at random will be unable to read is 0.7225
