Answer:
George is 43.20 ft East of his starting point.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Paula's speed be x ft/s
George's speed = 9 ft/s
Note that speed = (distance)/(time)
Distance = (speed) × (time)
George takes 50 s to run a lap of the track at a speed of y ft/s
Meaning that the length of the circular track = y × 50 = 50y ft
George and Paula meet 14 seconds after the start of the run.
Distance covered by George in 14 seconds = 9 × 14 = 126 ft
Distance covered by Paula in 14 seconds = y × 14 = 14y ft
But the sum of the distance covered by both runners in the 14 s before they first meet each other is equal to the length of the circular track
That is,
126 + 14y = 50y
50y - 14y = 126
36y = 126
y = (126/36) = 3.5 ft/s.
Hence, Paula's speed = 3.5 ft/s
Length of the circular track = 50y = 50 × 3.5 = 175 ft
So, in 4 minutes (240 s), with George running at 9 ft/s, he would have ran a total distance of
9 × 240 = 2160 ft.
2160 ft around a circular track of length 175 ft, means that George would have ran a total number of laps (2160/175) = 12.343 laps.
Breaking this into 12 laps and 0.343 of a lap from the starting point. 0.343 of a lap = 0.343 × 175 = 60 ft
So, 60 ft along a circular track subtends an angle θ at the centre of the circle.
Length of an arc = (θ/360°) × 2πr
2πr = total length of the circular track = 175
r = (175/2π) = 27.85 ft
Length of an arc = (θ/360) × 2πr
60 = (θ/360°) × 175
(θ/360°) = (60/175) = 0.343
θ = 0.343 × 360° = 123.45°
The image of this incomplete lap is shown in the attached image,
The distance of George from his starting point along the centre of the circular track = (r + a)
But, a can be obtained using trigonometric relations.
Cos 56.55° = (a/r) = (a/27.85)
a = 27.85 cos 56.55° = 15.35 ft
r + a = 27.85 + 15.35 = 43.20 ft.
Hence, George is 43.20 ft East of his starting point.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total possibilities when we a roll a die at a time are 6
given we should have four for first time and then three
let us assume we rolled the dice we may get 1,2,3,4,5,6(any of these) the probability to get 4 is
PROBABILITY=
Favourable chances=1
Total chances=6
Probability=
the prabability to get 4 in first roll is .
let us assume we rolled the dice for second time again we may get 1,2,3,4,5,6(any of these) the probability to get 3 is
Favourable chances=1
total chances=6
probability=
the probability to get 3 in second roll irrespective of first one is
the probability to get 4 in first time and then 3 is
The probability to occur both events at a time is multiplication of individual probabilities
So,
probablility to get 4 in first roll=
probability to get 3 in second roll=
probability to occur both at a same time is =
=
