A spinner is divided into many sections of equal size. Some sections are red, some are blue, and the remaining are green. The pr

obability of the arrow landing on a section colored red is 9 over 20. The probability of the arrow landing on a section colored blue is 6 over 20. What is the probability of the arrow landing on a green-colored section?.

Answer: Probability of the arrow landing on a green colored section is \dfrac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of the arrow landing on a section colored blue = \dfrac{6}{20}

Probability of the arrow landing on a section colored red = \dfrac{9}{20}

Since there are only three sections i.e. red, blue and green.

We need to find the probability of the arrow landing on a section colored green.

Required probability is given by

1-(\dfrac{9}{20}+\dfrac{6}{20})\\\\=1-\dfrac{15}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{20-15}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}

Hence, Probability of the arrow landing on a green colored section is \dfrac{1}{4}

The answer would be 5/20 because you add the probability of red and blue (15/20), then subtract from the total (20) which would make it 5/20.

HELP The minute hand of a clock is 5 inches long. to the the nearest tenth of an inch, how far does the tip of the minute hand t
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

18.326 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is basically asking us to find the arc length that the tip of the minute hand travels. The formula for an arc length is S=θr. So we need th find the angle that the minute hand passes through. We know that there is 360 degrees in a cicle and there is 12 stops around a clock, so divide 360 by 12 to find the degrees the minute hand travels every 5 minutes. We ge that every 5 minutes the hand travels 30 degrees, and 35 minutes is 7*5 so we multiple 30*7 to find the angular displacement, and we get 210 degrees. This equation uses radians though so we have to convert, which can be done doing \frac{210}{1} *\frac{\pi }{180}, and we ge that θ is \frac{7\pi }{6} so (\frac{7\pi }{6})(5)= 18.326 inches

dmitriy555 [2]

Tony’s club is selling oranges to raise money. For every box they sell, they get 1 1/8 dollars profit. They have sold 75 boxes already. How many more boxes must they sell to raise 180 dollars?

Answer: We are given:

The amount of money Tony's club get for every box they sell =1 \frac{1}{8} =1.125 dollar

They amount of money Tony's club has raised by selling 75 boxes is:

75 \times 1.125=84.375 dollars

The amount of money Tony's club is required to raise = 180 dollars

The remaining need to be raised is :

180-84.375=95.625 dollars

Therefore, the number of more boxes to be sold are:

\frac{95.625}{1.125}=85

Hence, 85 more boxes they must sell to raise 180 dollars
