Answer:

Part A) The probability is closer to 0, because is less than 50%

Part B) The probability is closer to 1, because is greater than 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.  

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes  

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.  

so  

Let

x------> size of the event space

y-----> size of the sample space  

so

P=\frac{x}{y}

Part A) Is the probability of hitting the black circle inside the target closer to 0 or 1?

In this problem we have

x------> is the area of the black circle

y------> is the total area of the square target

<em>Find the area of black circle</em>

r=3/2=1.5\ units    

x=(3.14)(1.5)^{2} =7.065\ units^{2}

<em>Find the total area of the square target</em>

y=9^{2}=81\ units^{2}

Find the probability

P=\frac{7.065}{81}=0.0872

Convert to percentage

0.0872*100=8.72\%

The probability is closer to 0, because is less than 50%

Part B) Is the probability of hitting the white portion of the target closer to 0 or 1?

In this problem we have

x------> is the area of the white portion of the target

y------> is the total area of the square target

<em>Find the area of the white portion</em>

The area is equal to the area of the square minus the area of the circle

x=81-7.065=73.935\ units^{2}

Find the probability

P=\frac{73.935}{81}=0.9128

Convert to percentage

0.9128*100=91.28\%

The probability is closer to 1, because is greater than 50%

What’s is x=5y for y
Margarita [4]

Answer:

y=\frac{x}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x = 5y}{5}

For the y to cancel out, you would have to divide y by 5. Whenever you do one thing to a side, you <u><em>have</em></u> to do the same on the other side. Once you do so, you'll get : \frac{x}{5}

<em>Hope this helps!!</em>

Given that P = (-4, 11) and Q = (-5, 8), find the component form and magnitude of vector QP
Svetach [21]
The given points are
P = (-4,11)
Q = (-5,8)

The x-component of vector QP is
-4 - (-5) = 1
The y-component of vector QP is
11 - 8 = 3

The vector QP is 
(1,3) or
\vec{QP} = \hat{i} + 3\hat{j}

The magnitude of the vector is
√(1² + 3²) = √(10)

Answer:
\vec{QP} = \hat{i}+3\hat{j} \,\, or \,\, (1,3)
The magnitude is √(10).
