sophia throws a dart at this square-shaped target:

a square is shown with sides labeled 9. a shaded circle is shown in the center of the square. the diameter of the circle is 3.

part a: is the probability of hitting the black circle inside the target closer to 0 or 1? explain your answer and show your work. (5 points)

part b: is the probability of hitting the white portion of the target closer to 0 or 1? explain your answer and show your work. (5 points)

Part A) The probability is closer to 0, because is less than 50%

Part B) The probability is closer to 1, because is greater than 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.

Let

x------> size of the event space

y-----> size of the sample space

$P=\frac{x}{y}$

Part A) Is the probability of hitting the black circle inside the target closer to 0 or 1?

In this problem we have

x------> is the area of the black circle

y------> is the total area of the square target

Find the area of black circle

$r=3/2=1.5\ units$

$x=(3.14)(1.5)^{2} =7.065\ units^{2}$

Find the total area of the square target

$y=9^{2}=81\ units^{2}$

Find the probability

$P=\frac{7.065}{81}=0.0872$

Convert to percentage

$0.0872*100=8.72\%$

The probability is closer to 0, because is less than 50%

Part B) Is the probability of hitting the white portion of the target closer to 0 or 1?

In this problem we have

x------> is the area of the white portion of the target

y------> is the total area of the square target

Find the area of the white portion

The area is equal to the area of the square minus the area of the circle

$x=81-7.065=73.935\ units^{2}$

Find the probability

$P=\frac{73.935}{81}=0.9128$

Convert to percentage

$0.9128*100=91.28\%$

The probability is closer to 1, because is greater than 50%

Answer from: Quest

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

Mary beth used the mapping rule to find the coordinates of a point that had been rotated 90° counterclockwise around the origin. examine the steps to determine whether she made an error. m (3, –6) is rotated 90° counterclockwise. (x, y) → (–y, x) 1. switch the x- and y-coordinates: (6, –3) 2. multiply the new x-coordinate by –1: (6(–1), –3) 3. simplify: (–6, –3) .
