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
