April and Sanjay are both using tools to simulate the probability that a family with three children will have exactly one girl.

April is using a coin, with tails up representing a boy and heads up representing a girl. She flipped the coin three times. Sanjay rolled a number cube three times with odd numbers representing a boy and even numbers representing a girl.
Explain the differences in the theoretical probability and the experimental probability.

Answer:

Theoretical probability is what we expect to happen, where experimental probability is what actually happens when we try it out. The probability is still calculated the same way, using the number of possible ways an outcome can occur divided by the total number of outcomes. As more trials are conducted, the experimental probability generally gets closer to the theoretical probability.

Four darts are thrown at this dartboard. If all four darts hit the board, how many different point totals are possible. (Dartboa
jonny [76]

Answer:

Different point total are possible = 497

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Four darts are thrown at this dartboard. Dartboard regions are  

             1, 4, 7, 10 points

To find - If all four darts hit the board, how many different point totals are

              possible.

Proof -

Are given there are 4 regions -

1st region - 1 point

2nd region - 4 points

3rd region - 7 points

4th region - 10 points

Case I :

If all the darts hit the different region -

Total points possible are - 1 + 4 + 7 + 10 = 22 points

Case II :

If all the darts hit the same region -

It means either they hit 1 region or 2nd region or 3rd region or 4th region

If they all 4 hit first region , points are - 1+1+1+1 = 4

If they all 4 hit second region , points are - 4+4+4+4= 16

If they all 4 hit third region , points are - 7+7+7+7 = 28

If they all 4 hit fourth region , points are - 10+10+10+10 = 40

So,

the Total points possible are - 4 + 16 + 28 + 40 = 88

Case III :

If 3 darts hit the same region -

Sub-case 1 :

If 1 dart hit 1st region, other 3 dart hit 2nd region

Points are - 1 + 4 + 4+ 4 = 13

Sub-case 2 :

If 1 dart hit 1st region , other 3 dart hit 3rd region

Points are - 1 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 22

Sub-case 3 :

If 1 dart hit 1st region , other 3 dart hit 4th region

Points are - 1 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 31

Sub-case 4 :

If 1 dart hit 2nd region , other 3 dart hit 1st region

Points are - 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 7

Sub-case 5 :

If 1 dart hit 2nd region , other 3 dart hit 3rd region

Points are - 4 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 25

Sub-case 6 :

If 1 dart hit 2nd region , other 3 dart hit 4th region

Points are - 4 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 34

Sub-case 7 :

If 1 dart hit 3rd region , other 3 dart hit 1st region

Points are - 7 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 10

Sub-case 8 :

If 1 dart hit 3rd region , other 3 dart hit 2nd region

Points are - 7 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 19

Sub-case 9 :

If 1 dart hit 3rd region , other 3 dart hit 4th region

Points are - 7 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 37

Sub-case 10 :

If 1 dart hit 4th region , other 3 dart hit 1st region

Points are - 10 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 13

Sub-case 11 :

If 1 dart hit 4th region , other 3 dart hit 2nd region

Points are - 10 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 22

Sub-case 12 :

If 1 dart hit 4th region , other 3 dart hit 3rd region

Points are - 10 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 31

So,

Total points possible are - 13+22+21+7+25+34+10+19+37+13+22+31 = 254

Case IV :

If 2 darts hit the same region -

Sub-case 1:

If 2 darts hits 1st region , other 2 darts hit 2nd region

Points are - 1 + 1 + 4 + 4 = 10

Sub-case 2:

If 2 darts hits 1st region , other 2 darts hit 3rd region

Points are - 1 + 1 + 7 + 7 = 16

Sub-case 3:

If 2 darts hits 1st region , other 2 darts hit 4th region

Points are - 1 + 1 + 10 + 10 = 23

Sub-case 4:

If 2 darts hits 2nd region , other 2 darts hit 3rd region

Points are - 4 + 4 + 7 + 7 = 22

Sub-case 5:

If 2 darts hits 2nd region , other 2 darts hit 4th region

Points are - 4 + 4 + 10 + 10 = 28

Sub-case 6:

If 2 darts hits 3rd region , other 2 darts hit 4th region

Points are - 7 + 7 + 10 + 10 = 34

So,

Total points possible are - 10 + 16 + 23 + 22 + 28 + 34 = 133

Case V :

If 1 darts hit the same region -

This case is include in the Case III.

∴ we get

Different point total are possible = Points in Case I +  II +  III +  IV

                                                       = 22 + 88 + 254 + 133

                                                       = 497

⇒Different point total are possible = 497

An agricultural company called Phatsima Pty. Ltd. owns an rectangular fuel tank that measures 75 cm by 65 cm by 30 cm.
GaryK [48]
I believe that A is the answer. We can solve this by multiplying 75cm, 65cm and 30cm together. This would give us 146,250.00ml. We can then divide 146,250.00 by 1000 to receive 146.25. We then divide 146.25 by 2 to calculate how many litres there are in half a tank. This would result in 73.125. After that, we multiple 73.125 by the cost of the fuel, which is R20.35. We then receive R 1,480.09375, which can be rounded to R 1,480.10
