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...

The Super Lotto Plus game consists of a player selecting five different numbers from 1 to 47 and a mega number from 1 to 27 (the
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

1/41416353 probability of all five numbers and the mega number matching the winning numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question, the order of the numbers is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Probability of the five numbers matching:

Desired outcomes: 1 -> the matching numbers

Total outcomes: 5 from a set of 47. So

T = C_{47,5} = \frac{47!}{5!(47-5)!} = 1533939

Probability:

p_{S} = \frac{1}{1533939}

Probability of the mega number matching:

1 from a set of 27. So

p_M = \frac{1}{27}

Probability of both matching:

Independent events, so we multiply the probabilities:

p = p_S*p_M = \frac{1}{1533939}*\frac{1}{27} = \frac{1}{41416353}

1/41416353 probability of all five numbers and the mega number matching the winning numbers

Shane and Karen want to measure the length of a soccer field. Should they use centimeters or meters to measure it? Explain.
Ber [7]

Shane and Karen want to measure the length of a soccer field. Length can be measured in different units such as cm, m ,km , yards etc. The question is asking us to select between two units cm or meters which will be more appropriate to measure the field.

To measure the field a larger unit is required. Meter is a bigger unit than centimeter.Centimeter is not the correct unit to measure the length of soccer field.

Shane and Karen should use meters to measure the soccer field.
