Two friends are to meet at the library. Each independently and randomly selects an arrival time within the same one-hour period. Each agrees to wait a maximum of fifteen minutes for the other to arrive. What is the probability that they will meet

The probability that they will meet is 0.4375

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A and B be two friends who choose to meet  the same one-hour period.Since there are 60 minutes in an hour therefore n= 60

A can wait for 15 minutes

So the probability of A to meet is given by P(A)=  (15/60)= 1/4

Similarly

B can wait for 15 minutes

So the probability of B to meet is given by P(B)=  (15/60)= 1/4

The  probability  that A cannot meet is given by 1- P(A)=  1-1/4= 3/4

Similarly

The  probability  that B cannot meet is given by 1- P(B)=  1-1/4= 3/4

And

The  probability  that both  A  and B cannot meet is given by = 3/4*3/4= 9/16

So the probability that both will meet = 1- 9/16= 7/16= 0.4375

e) none of the above because the measure of angle cba is 101°

24

step-by-step explanation:

if it takes 8 pounds to make 12 divide 12 by 8 and you get 1.5, 1.5 x 16 = 24
