Professor stander deviation can take one of two routes on his way home from work. on the first route, there are four railroad crossings. the probability that he will be stopped by a train at any particular one of the crossings is .1, and trains operate independently at the four crossings. the other route is longer but there are only two crossings, independent of each other, with the same stoppage probability for each as on the first route. on a particular day, professor deviation has a meeting scheduled at home for a certain time. whichever route he takes, he calculates that he will be late if he is stopped by trains at at least half the crossings encountered. (a) which route should he take to minimize the probability of being late to the meeting

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry.how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.
