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
is given by
- Area of a circle with radius
is given by
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:
Area of circle:
Therefore, the probability that the point will be inside the circle is:
Answer: Choice A
==========================================================
Explanation:
One shaded region is below the parabola, and the other shaded region is below the line. They both overlap outside the parabola, but under the straight line.
Since both shaded regions are below their respective boundaries, this means that we'll be using "less than" signs for each inequality. The solid boundary lines indicate "or equal to" is part of that as well.
Because of this, the answer is between A and D since both involve inequality signs that have "less than or equal to".
However, we can rule out choice D since the inequality would have the boundary line
, and this boundary line has a positive slope. But notice how the red diagonal line slopes downward as we read from left to right. Therefore, the red line must have a negative slope. Luckily, choice A has one of the boundary lines as y = -x+3 to fit the description. So that's why choice A is the answer.
