We need to find the height of the cylinder
pythagorean theorem
15 is the bottom leg (30/2=15)
17 is hypotonuse
b=height
15^2+b^2=17^2
225+b^2=289
minus 225 both sides
b^2=64
sqrt both sides b=8

Vcone=(1/3)hpir^2
d/2=r=30/2=15
h=8
V=(1/3)8pi15^2
V=(1/3)8pi225
V=8pi75
V=600pi
aprox pi=3.14159256
V=1884.955536 in^3

There is a boardwalk game at Point Pleasant where you are blindfolded to throw darts at a board full of balloons. Each time a da
arlik [135]

The given number of balloons, green = 10, purple = 4, red = 5, tie-dye = 2, black = 3, gives;

a. 5/138

b. 25/276

c. 5/1012

d. 35/46

<h3>How can the different probabilities be calculated mathematically?</h3>

Given parameters;

Number of balls;

Green = 10

Purple = 4

Red = 5

Tie-dye = 2

Black = 3

Mode of selection = Without replacement

Number of balloons = 10+4+5+2+3 = 24

a. Probability of popping a red balloon = 5/24

Probability of popping a second red balloon = 4/23

Therefore;

Probability of popping two reds consecutively = 5/24 × 4/23 = 5/138

b. Probability of popping a red balloon = 5/24

Probability of popping a green balloon next = 10/23

Therefore;

Probability of popping a red and then a green balloon = 5/24 × 10/23 = 25/276

c. Probability that the first balloon that pops is a red = 5/24

Next balloon is a black = 3/23

Third balloon is red = 4/22

The probability, <em>P</em>, is therefore;

  • P = 5/24 × 3/23 × 4/22 = 5/1012

d. The probability that the first balloon is a tie-dye = 2/24 = 1/12

Therefore;

Probability that the first balloon is not a tie-dye = 1 - 1/12 = 11/12

Probability that the second balloon is not a tie-dye = 21/23

Similarly;

Probability that the third balloon is not a tie-dye = 20/22 = 10/11

Which gives;

The probability, <em>P</em>, of popping anything but a tie-dye on three consecutive throws is therefore;

  • P = 11/12 × 21/23 × 10/11 = 35/46
