MAVERICK [17]

Given that Bill is on the school archery team. the target has a center bull's-eye and two rings around the bull's-eye.

Given the table below that gives the probabilities of outcomes.

$\begin{tabular}
{|c|c|c|c|c|}
\bold{Outcome}&Bull's-eye&Inner ring&Outer ring&Miss\\
\bold{Probability}&0.036&0.297& 0.423&0.244
\end{tabular}$

The probability that Bill will get the next arrow in the inner or outer ring is given by
P(inner ring) + P(outer ring) = 0.297 + 0.423 = 0.72

Therefore, the probability that Bill will get the next arrow in the inner or outer ring is 0.72

7(h-4) = 2h + 17 distribute to get:
7h - 28 = 2h + 17 subtract 2h from both sides to get:
5h - 28 = 17 add 28 to both sides to get:
5h = 45 divide 5 from both sides to get:
h = 9
