A simple dart target has two concentric circles. The larger circle has a radius of 4. The smaller circle has a radius of 2. The

scoring should correspond to the relative difficulty of hitting the inner circle and the outer ring. How many more points should a player receive for landing a dart in the inner circle, as opposed to the outer ring?

Answer:

3 times more.

Step-by-step explanation:

The odds of landing a dart in any of the circles correspond to the surface area of the circle.

Calculate the surface area of both circles:

The formula for the area of a circle is \pi r^{2}.

  • inner circle: A=\pi 2^{2}=12.566
  • for the outer circle, use the formula then subtract the value of the inner circle, to find the remaining area: A=(\pi 4^{2} )-12.566=37.699

Calculating greater chance:

Divide the larger area by the smaller area:

37.699/12.566 = 3

That means that the area of the outer circle is 3 times larger, making it 3 times more likely to hit the outer circle. Therefore the points for hitting the inner circle should be 3 times more.

kykrilka [37]

100.80 kg - 20.35 kg = 80.45 kg . . . . the new weight of the bag

It's a pretty straightforward subtraction problem. As with any decimal addition or subtraction, you line up the decimal points and extend any numbers with zeros to make the number of decimal places match.
