Can anyone please help me with this question? : A target consists of two concentric circles. The larger circle has diameter 1m.

When a complete novice fires at the target, the probability of hitting the blue circle is the same as the probability of hitting the green region. Find the diameter of the blue circle.

We know that
if  <span>the probability of hitting the blue circle is the same as the probability of hitting the green region
then 
the area of the blue circle is equal to the area of the green region

Let
x----> diameter of the blue circle

area of the blue circle=pi*(x/2)</span>²----> (pi/4)*x² m²-----> equation 1

area of the green region=area of the larger circle-area of the blue circle
area of the green region=pi*(1/2)²-(pi/4)*x²
=(pi/4)-(pi/4)*x² m²----> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2
(pi/4)*x²=(pi/4)-(pi/4)*x² -----> divide by (pi/4)---> x²=1-x²
2x²=1-----> x²=1/2----> x=1/√2-----> x=√2/2 m

the diameter of the blue circle is √2/2 m

jolli1 [7]

The probability that the red balls can be drawn before the green ball is drawn is 3/8.

<h3>What is Probability?</h3>

The probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event to happen.

Given:

red balls= 3

white balls = 4

green balls = 1

So, Probability of red balls

=3/8

Probability of green balls

=1/7
