Using the Pythagorean Theorem, it is found that the lot has an area of about 35 acres.

<h3>What is the Pythagorean Theorem?</h3>

The Pythagorean Theorem relates the length of the legs l_1 and l_2 of a right triangle with the length of the hypotenuse h, according to the following equation:

h^2 = l_1^2 + l_2^2

Researching the problem on the internet, the lot has one leg of 800 feet and the hypotenuse is of 3900 feet, hence the other leg is found as follows:

800^2 + l^2 = 3900^2

l = \sqrt{3900^2 - 800^2}

l = 3817 feet.

<h3>What is the area of a right triangle?</h3>

The area of a right triangle is given by half the multiplication of it's legs. Hence, the area of the lot, in square feet, is given by:

A = 0.5 x 800 x 3817 = 1,526,800 square feet.

Each square feet is equivalent to 0.000029568 acres, hence the area in acres is given by:

Aa = 0.000029568 x 1,526,800 = 35 acres.

These are 3 different events out of 6 possilbe ones, which is 3 / 6 = 1 / 2; i.e. half of times.

Then the answer is the first option: 1 / 2

Brooke was the high scorer on her basketball team, making 15 baskets out of 25 shots attempted. What was her percent of success
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

She had a success rate of 60 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate her percentage of success we need to take the total amount of shots she made and divide it by the total amounts of shots she attempted and multiply it by 100. Since she took 25 shoots and made 15, we have:

percentage of success = (15/25)*100% = 0.6*100% = 60 %

She had a success rate of 60 %.
