Base your answer to the question on the diagram shown below. what is the probability of a dart (thrown at random) landing in the area marked f?

it is 1 /7

Step-by-step explanation:

total no. of outcome by total no. of observation

The probability of a dart (thrown at random) landing in the area marked F is:

                                      1/16

We know that the probability of an outcome is defined as the chance of occurrence of an outcome and it is calculated as the ratio of number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

We first make equal sections i.e. we divide the figure into equal sections and observe that:

A and D is made up of 4 sections.

B,C and E is made up of 2 sections.

F and G are made up of 1 section.

This means that the total number of sections are: 4+4+2+2+2+1+1=16

Hence,

Probability(landing on F)=1/16

( Since there are total 16 sections and F is made up of 1 )

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.
