<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

Fraction of the whole band playing snare drum = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{10} of the whole band

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>We are given that:</u>

Fraction of percussionists = \frac{1}{5} of the whole band

Fraction of those playing snare drums =  \frac{1}{2} the percussionists

Now, to get the fraction of the whole band playing snare drums, we will need to multiply the fraction of percussionists by the fraction of percussionists playing snare drums

<u>This is done as follows:</u>

Fraction of the whole band playing snare drum = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{10} of the whole band

Hope this helps :)

three zebras are chilling in the desert. suddenly a lion attacks. each zebra is sitting on a corner of an equally length triangl
AnnyKZ [126]

Probability that no zebras collide is 0.25

The zebras are represented as z1, z2 and z3.

Z1 to B, Z2 to C, and Z3 to A come first = (\frac{1}{2})^3

Following that, z1 to C, z2 to A, and z3 to B = (\frac{1}{2})^3

Consequently, the likelihood of no collision is 2×1/8 = 0.25.

<h3>What are the types of probability distributions ?</h3>

Discrete and continuous probability distributions are the two main categories in which probability distributions fall. There are numerous varieties of probability distributions within each category.

  • The number of favorable outcomes of an event divided by the total number of possible outcomes of an event can be used to calculate the probability of an event.
  • The likelihood of a sure or certain event is one.
  • The likelihood of an impossibility is 0 (0).
  • Every event has a probability between 0 and 1.

Geometry help. Inscribing circle help and constructing lines.

<h3>1. Inscribe a circle ΔJKL. Identify the point of concurrency that is the center of the circle you drew. </h3>

To inscribe a circle in the attached triangle, we must follow the following steps. The resultant figure is the first one below.

1. Draw the angle bisector of angle JKL. The straight line in the green one.

2. Draw the angle bisector of angle KLJ. The straight line in the blue one.

3. Draw point D at these two lines.

4. Draw a line through point D perpendicular to side JK. The straight line in the red one.

5. Mark point G at the red line and side JK.

6. Draw a circle with center at D (point of concurrency) and a radius of DG.


<h3>2. Circumscribe a circle ΔFGH. Identify the point of concurrency that is the center of the circle you drew. </h3>

To circumscribe a circle in the attached triangle, we must follow the following steps:

1. Draw the perpendicular bisector of the side FG. The straight line in the red one. The resultant figure is the second one below.

2. Draw the perpendicular bisector of the side GH. The straight line in the blue one.

3. The center of the circle is the intersection of these two lines

4. Draw a circle with center at D (point of concurrency).

<h3>3. Construct the two lines tangents to circle</h3>

A tangent to a circle is a straight line that touches the circle at an only point. If a point A is outside a circle, we can draw two lines that pass through this point and are tangent to the circle at two different points each. So this is shown in the third figure. Lines red and blue are tangent to the circle at two different points.
