Final answer:

Yes, the EFB battery has 3 hours and 50 minutes of power in airplane mode, which is just sufficient for the remaining 3 hours and 49 minutes of flight time.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question presents a scenario where an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) battery currently has 80% charge, which can last for 3 hours and 50 minutes when the EFB is in Airplane mode. The flight time remaining according to the release is 3 hours and 49 minutes.

To determine if the EFB battery will last for the remaining flight time, we compare the two figures. The battery can last for 3 hours and 50 minutes, while the flight time on release is 3 hours and 49 minutes; since 3 hours and 50 minutes is greater than 3 hours and 49 minutes, the answer is Yes, the EFB battery has enough power to complete the flight.
