Answer:

No, modern train cannot travel on old railroad.

Step-by-step explanation:

In rail transport, track gauge is the spacing of the rails on a railway track and is measured between the inner faces of the load-bearing rails.

Most of the modern train are based on broad gauge. The separation in broad gauge is about 5 ft and 6 inches and in the standard gauge the separation between the tracks is 4 ft and 8\frac{1}{2} inches. So for the modern train it is not possible to travel on the tracks whose separation is no more than 4.5 feet.

If a point is chosen inside the square, what is the probability that it will also be inside the circle?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

79\%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the point is chosen in the circle is equal to the area of the circle divided by the area of the square.

Formulas used:

  • Area of a square with side length s is given by A=s^2
  • Area of a circle with radius r is given by A=r^2\pi

The segment marked as 1 represents not only the radius of the circle, but also half the side length of the square. Therefore, the side length of the square is 2, and we have:

Area of square: A=2^2=4

Area of circle:

A=1^2\pi=\pi

Therefore, the probability that the point will be inside the circle is:

\frac{\pi}{4}=0.78539816339\approx \boxed{79\%}
