On Martin's first stroke, his golf ball traveled 4/5 of the distance to the hole. On his second stroke, the ball traveled 79 met
Sav [38]

Answer:

0.395 kilometre

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

On Martin's first stroke, his golf ball traveled 4/5 of the distance to the hole.

On his second stroke, the ball traveled 79 meters and went into the hole.

<u>Question asked:</u>

How many kilometres from the hole was Martin when he started?

<u>Solution:</u>

Let distance from Martin starting point to the hole in meters = x

On Martin's first stroke, ball traveled = \frac{4}{5} \ of \ total \ distance\ to\ the\ hole

                                                             =\frac{4}{5} \times x=\frac{4x}{5}

On his second stroke, the ball traveled and went to the hole = 79 meters

Total distance from starting point to the hole = Ball traveled from first stroke + Ball traveled from second stroke

x=\frac{4x}{5} +79\\ \\ Subtracting\ both\ sides\ by \ \frac{4x}{5}\\ \\ x- \frac{4x}{5}= \frac{4x}{5}- \frac{4x}{5}+79\\ \\ \frac{5x-4x}{5} =79\\ \\ By \ cross\ multiplication\\ \\ x=79\times5\\ \\ x=395\ meters

Now, convert it into kilometre:

1000 meter = 1 km

1 meter = \frac{1}{1000}

395 meters = \frac{1}{1000}\times395=0.395\ kilometre

Thus, there are 0.395 kilometre distance from Martin starting point to the hole.

Urgent. There are 12 coloured counters in a bag. The counters are black, white or grey A counter is chosen at random. The probab
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Needed information</u>

\sf Probability\:of\:an\:event\:occurring = \dfrac{Number\:of\:ways\:it\:can\:occur}{Total\:number\:of\:possible\:outcomes}

The sum of the probabilities of all outcomes must equal 1

<u>Solution</u>

We are told that the probability that the counter is <em>not</em> black is 3/4.  

As the sum of the probabilities of all outcomes <u>must equal 1</u>, we can work out the probability that the counter <em>is </em>black by subtracting 3/4 from 1:

\sf P(counter\:not\:black)=\dfrac34

\implies \sf P(counter\:black)=1-\dfrac34=\dfrac14

We are told that the probability that the counter is <em>not </em>white is 2/3.  

As the sum of the probabilities of all outcomes <u>must equal 1</u>, we can work out the probability that the counter <em>is </em>white by subtracting 2/3 from 1:

\sf P(counter\:not\:white)=\dfrac23

\implies \sf P(counter\:white)=1-\dfrac23=\dfrac13

We are told that there are black, white and grey counters in the bag.  We also know that the sum of the probabilities of all outcomes must equal 1.  Therefore, we can work out the probability the counter is grey by subtracting the probability the counter is black and the probability the counter is white from 1:

\begin{aligned}\sf P(counter\:grey) & = \sf1-P(counter\:black)-P(counter\:white)\\\\ & =\sf 1-\dfrac14-\dfrac13\\\\ & = \sf \dfrac{12}{12}-\dfrac{3}{12}-\dfrac{4}{12}\\\\ & = \sf \dfrac{12-3-4}{12}\\\\ & = \sf \dfrac{5}{12}\end{aligned}
