Answer:

What is pi? The number π (/paɪ/) is a mathematical constant. It is defined as the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, and it also has various equivalent definitions. What are the first 3 numbers of pi? 3.14. Who invented Pi? The symbol π was devised by British mathematician William Jones in 1706 to represent the ratio and was later popularized by Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler.

Step-by-step explanation:

In math, pi is a very special number.

Pi is rounded to 3.14.

It's irrational which means it continues on forever so

it's impossible to find all the digits of pi.

For most problems, rounding Pi to 3.14 is acceptable.

For any circle, if we divide the circumference by the diameter, we get pi.

It involves the perimeter or circumference to a circle's diameter.

In fact, this is how the number pi was originally developed and named by the Ancient Greeks, who like Egyptians and Babylonians before them found that dividing the circumference of a circle by it's diameter would always yield the same number, which was approximately equal to 3.14.

It frustrated the Greeks to learn that Pi was a decimal number that had no end because the Greeks believed the circle to be a perfect shape and thus they believed that the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter should yield a more elegant number than 3.14159...

400 people were surveyed about their eye color. 8% of the people surveyed have green eyes. how many people had green eyes​
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem above can be solved by using the <em>multiplication operation</em>.

Given: 400 people

           8% of the people with green eyes

Let's solve:

Let x be<em><u> the number of people with green eyes.</u></em>

x = 400 x 8%

x = 400 x (0.08)

x = 32

So, the number of people surveyed with green eyes is 32. The rest of the surveyed people (368) have a different eye color.

You decide to play roulette 200 times each time betting the same amount on red. you will loe money if you win on fewer than 100
Arturiano [62]
First off, your chances of red are not really 50-50. You are overlooking the 0 slot or the 00 slot which are green. So, chances of red are 18 in 37 (0 slot) or 38 (0 and 00 slots). With a betting machine, the odds does not change no trouble what has occurred before. Think through the simplest circumstance, a coin toss. If I toss heads 10 times one after the other, the chances of tails about to happen on the next toss are still on a 50-50. A betting machine has no ability, no plan, and no past. 
Chances (0 slot) that you success on red are 18 out of 37 (18 red slots), but likelihoods of losing are 19 out of 37 (18 black plus 0). For the wheel with both a 0 and 0-0 slot, the odds are poorer. You chances of red are 18 out of 38 (18 red slots win), and down are 20 out of 38 (18 black plus 0 and 00). It does not really matter on how long you play there, the probabilities would always continue the same on every spin. The lengthier you play, the more thoroughly you will tie the chances with a total net loss of that portion of a percent in accord of the house. 18 winning red slots and either 19 or 20 losing slots.
