(b) Work out the probability Jennifer hits the Bullseye at least once.


Can someone work this out for me ?

Answers

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Filling out the tree diagram,

On the first throw, there is a 4/4 = 100%* chance Jennifer hits or misses. Therefore, the chance she misses is equal to the difference between

(chance she hits or misses) - (chance she hits) = 4/4 - 1/4 = 3/4

For the second throw, the chance she hits is independent of whether she hits or misses on the first throw. This means that it does not matter whether she hits or misses on the first throw; her chance to hit the second throw will always be 1/3. Therefore, 1/3 can go into the hit category on each hit line on the second throw, and in the miss category, we can put

100% - 1/3 = 1 - 1/3 = 3/3 - 1/3 = 2/3

For Jennifer to hit the bullseye at least once, she must either:

- Hit and then hit

- Hit and then miss

- Miss and then hit

From this, we can determine that if Jennifer hits the first bullseye, she will have hit it at least once, no matter what. Therefore, Jennifer must either:

- Hit the first one

- Miss and then hit

In probability, OR /either means that we add the probabilties. The probability that she hits the first one is 1/4, and the probability that she misses and then hits is

(probability she misses the 1st one) * (probability she hits the second one). We know to multiply here because both scenarios must happen, and for AND probabilities, we multiply. We thus have

(3/4) * (1/3) = 3/12 = 1/4 as the probabilty that she misses then hits, and 1/4 as the probability that she hits the first one. We add these up to get 1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4 = 1/2 as our probability that she hits the bullseye at least once

* we know 4/4 = 100% because 100% = 1, and anything divided by itself is equal to 1.

The lengths of the diameters of two concentric circles are 6 and 8. What is the distance between the circles?

Answers

Answer:  1 unit

Explanation:

The diameters are 6 and 8, which cut in half to 3 and 4 respectively.

The difference in these radii values is 4-3 = 1.

This is the distance from one circle's edge to the other circle's edge, such that we're on the same line that goes through the center of the circles. This is the gap width or ring width so to speak.

provisions for 630 men to last for 25 days. How many men must be transferred to another camp so that the food lasts for 30 days?​

Answers

Answer:

105

Step-by-step explanation:

25 days = Food for 630 men

30 days = x           (Inverse variation)

30 * x = 630 * 25

x = 630 * 25/30

  = 21 * 25

  = 525 men.

630 - 525 = 105 men.

Therefore, 105 men must be transferred to another camp so that the food lasts for 30 days.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the area of the shaded region, you'd find the area of the white rectangular shape, next, find the area of the whole triangular shape, then find the difference of their areas to get the area of the shaded region. Thus, the formula to use would be:

Area of shaded region = area of triangle - area of rectangle

Area of shaded region = ½*base*height - length*width

1. a. Volume of triangular prism = area of triangular base * height of prism

Volume of triangular prism = ½bh * H

Where,

b = 6 m

h = 4 m

H = 8 m

Substitute

Volume of prism = ½*6*4*8

Volume of prism = 96 m³

b. Volume of sphere = ⁴/3πr³

Where,

r = 9 cm

Substitute

Volume = ⁴/3*π*9³

Volume = ⁴/3*π*729

Volume ≈ 3,053.6 cm³ (nearest tenth)

2. Use Pythagorean theorem to find the height of the cone

radius of the cone (r) = ½(16) = 8 cm

Slant height (l) = 11 cm

height (h) = ?

Using Pythagorean theorem, we have:

h = √(l² - r²)

Substitute

h = √(11² - 8²)

h = √(57)

h ≈ 7.5 cm (nearest tenth)

b. Volume of the cone = ⅓πr²h

where,

r = 8 cm

h = 7.5 cm

Volume = ⅓*π*8²*7.5

Volume = 502.7 cm³ (nearest tenth)

Jocelyn was attempting to find out how much she will be charged per download. She has the fraction upside down. To find the amount of money per download, the fraction should be $12/3downloads to get $4/1download. That is the slope of the equation, the rate of change or, for us, the fact that your cost will go up $4 for every single video you download. The equation would then be

y = 4x

The way she has it, we are paying only a quarter for a download. If that be the case, for 3 downloads we would only be paying .75, but it says we pay $12, so we know something is wrong right there.

A regular square pyramid has a slant height of 5 in and a base area of 49 in2. Find the surface area of the pyramid. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 171.5 square inches 70 square inches 119 square inches 245 square inches

Answers

Answer:

C: 119 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Slant height; L = 5 in

Base area; B = 49 in²

Since it's a square pyramid, the base portion has a square shape.

Thus, area of base = x²

Where x is a side of the square.

Thus;

x² = 49

x = √49

x = 7

Perimeter of base = 7 × 4 = 28 in

Area of pyramid = ½PL + B

Plugging in the relevant values;

Area of pyramid = (½ × 28 × 5) + 49

Area of pyramid = 119 in²

Answer:  4

=============================================================

Explanation:

1/2 = 4/8 after multiplying top and bottom by 8

So the mixed number 7  1/2 is the same as 7  4/8

We can convert to an improper fraction like so

7  4/8

7 + 4/8

7*(8/8) + 4/8

56/8 + 4/8

(56+4)/8

60/8

Notice how dividing 60 over 8 leads to 7 remainder 4. Think of it like having 60 cookies and you want to share them amongst 8 friends. Each friend gets 7 whole cookies (7*8 = 56 taken so far) and then we have 60-56 = 4 left over as the remainder.

Through similar steps, you should find that the mixed number 1  7/8 converts to the improper fraction 15/8.

-----------------------------

To rephrase the problem with improper fractions would be to say:

"The electrician needs to buy 60/8 feet of wire. There are 15/8 feet of wire in each spool. How many spools should the electrician buy?"

Let x be the answer to that question.

We multiply the number of spools (x) by the amount of feet of wire per spool (15/8) to get the expression (15/8)x

Set this equal to the target 60/8 and solve for x

(15/8)x = 60/8

15x = 60 .... multiply both sides by 8 to clear out the fractions

x = 60/15

x = 4

The electrician needs to buy exactly 4 spools

-----------------------------

A different approach could have us convert each mixed number into decimal form

7  1/2 = 7 + 1/2 = 7 + 0.5 = 7.5

1  7/8 = 1 + 7/8 = 1 + 0.875 = 1.875

So the electrician needs to buy 7.5 ft total and each spool has 1.875 ft of wire.

Using the same idea as before, we would then have,

1.875x = 7.5

x = (7.5)/(1.875)

x = 4

Answers

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

the square root of 6 is roughly 1.57

so that means the ordered pair would read (2,1.57).

if you were to plot that point it would be on the circle.

Also the distance from the origin (0,0) to (3,0) is 3 units

We will see that the correct option is:

"No, the distance from (0, 0) to (2, 6) is not 3 units."

Does (2, 6) lie on the circle shown?

We know that the circle has a radius of 3 units, then we need to see if the distance between (0, 0) and (2, 6) is 3 units.

Here we have:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(6 - 0)^2 + (2 - 0)^2} = \sqrt{36 + 4} = \sqrt{40} \neq 3[/tex]

So the distance between (0, 0) and (2, 6) is different than 3 units, meaning that the point is not in the circle.

For Part A, use the pythagorean theorem to find the height, which ca be found by finding one length of the leg. Using the imaginary bisector, you can determine one of the legs is 5 cm, and the hypotenuse is 13 cm

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse. Plug in the values to solve for one leg, you get 25+b^2=169

Solve algebraically, b^2= 144, so b=12, which is the height.
