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

Number four here is the base, and the exponent is always shown as a superscript to the right of the base. It shows how many times you are supposed to multiply the base by itself.

PLEASE HELP I WILL GIVE 100 POINTS!!!!!!!!Given rectangle ABCD ~ HGFE , what is the length of HG ?
never [62]
Since rectangle ABCD is similar to  HGFE, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. We can infer form our picture that AD is corresponding to EH and DC is corresponding to HG, so lets find the ratios of those corresponding sides and establish a proportion to find the length of HG:
\frac{AD}{EH} = \frac{DC}{HG}
We know that AD=45, EH=27, and DC=15, so lets replace those values in our proportion:
\frac{45}{27} = \frac{15}{HG}
HG= \frac{27*15}{45}
HG= \frac{405}{45}
HG=9

We can conclude that the length of the segment HG is 9.
