Your employer says that the flood in 2010 was a 100-year flood and the flood in 2009 was a 200-year flood so it will be at least 300 years before we see another flood like them. Is your employer correct?

Respuesta :

Answer:

No, employer is not correct.

Explanation:

The two floods happened year after year. which means that the hundred year gap between the 200year flood and 100year flood turned to a year gap. This one year gap was a hundred year gap. Hence, the occurrence is random.

Answer: NO. The employer is wrong.

Explanation: A 100-year flood is a statistical term that explains that a flood has a 1 in 100 chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. This term is used for insurance purposes. Because there was a 100 year flood recently doesn't guarantee that there will be another in the near future. Floods doesn't have to follow any regular pattern.
