Question:

A statistics student wants to ensure that she is not late for an early statistics class because of a malfunctioning alarm clock. Instead of using one alarm clock, she decides to use three. What is the probability that at least one of her alarm clocks works correctly if each individual alarm clock has a 90% chance of working correctly? Does the student really gain much by using three alarm clocks instead of only one? How are the results affected if all of the alarm clocks run on electricity instead of batteries?
