Answer:

Geometric probability of an object hitting a circular hole is 0.0245.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

A board of size 48 by 24 inch. There is a circular hole in the board having diameter 6 inches.

So,

Area of a board = 48 × 24 = 1152 square inches

And area of circular hole = π×r²   {where r = diameter/2  = 6 / 2 = 3 inches}

Area of circular hole = π×3² = 9π = 28.27 square inches

Now, we need to find the geometric probability of an object will hit the circle.

Geometric probability =  Area of circular hole / Area of board

Geometric probability = \frac{28.27}{1152}

Geometric probability = 0.0245

hence geometric probability of an object hitting a circular hole is 0.0245.

Hannah can paint a room in 20 hours. Destiny can paint the same room in 16 hours. How long does it take for both Hannah and Dest
UNO [17]
Amount of room hannah can paint in an hour = 1/20
amount of room destiny can paint in an hour = 1/16
number of hours = x

1/20x + 1/16x = 1
the reason why this formula is true is, the amount of the room painted in the end should be 1 (the whole room)

4/80x + 5/80x = 1
9/80x = 1
9x = 80
x = 80/9 hours
x = 8.89 hours

The two triangular prisms shown are similar. What is the volume of the larger prism? 36 m2 36 m3 144 m2 144 m3
kap26 [50]

Answer:

144 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find attached the image of the prisms

Volume of a triangular prism = area of the base x height  of the prism

Area of the base = 1/2 ( base x height)

the two prisms are similar, thus, the dimensions of the bigger rectangle can be gotten from the ratio of the base of the smaller and bigger triangle

ratio of their dimensions = 6 / 1.5 = 4

the dimensions of the bigger triangle is 4 times that of the smaller triangle

height of the base of the prism = 1.5 x 4 = 6

Height of the prism = 2 x 4 = 8

Area of the base of the prism = (1/2) x 6 x 6 = 18 m^2

Volume of the prism = 18 x 8 = 144 m^3
