Answer:

The probability that the dart lands inside the triangle is 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the probability of an event

- The probability of an Event = Number of favorable outcomes ÷ Total

  number of possible outcomes

- P(A) = n(E) ÷ n(S) , where

# P(A) means finding the probability of an event A

# n(E) means the number of favorable outcomes of an event

# n(S) means set of all possible outcomes of an event

- P(A) < 1

* Lets solve the problem

- A rectangular dartboard has an area of 648 cm²

- The triangular part of the dartboard has an area of 162 cm²

- A dart is randomly thrown at the dartboard

- The dart lands in the rectangle

∴ The area of the rectangle is the set of all possible outcomes n(S)

- The probability P(A) that the dart lands inside the triangle

∴ The area of the triangle is set of favorable outcomes of an

   event n(E)

∵ P(A) = n(E) ÷ n(S)

∴ P(T) = area of the triangle ÷ area of the rectangle

∵ Area of the rectangle is 648 cm²

∴ n(S) = 648

∵ The area of the triangle is 162 cm²

∴ n(E) = 162

∴ P(T) = 162 ÷ 648 = 1/4 = 0.25

* The probability that the dart lands inside the triangle is 0.25

Veronika [31]
The dimensions given are 8 feet length and 4 inches height. The volume of the rectangular portion is $58.07 divided by $98 per cubic yard equal to 0.59255 cubic yards. 8 feet is equal to 8/3 yards and 4 inches is equal to 1/9 yards. Hence the width is equal to 0.59255 cubic yards / (8/3)/(1/9) yards2 equal to 2 yards

1. Segment A'B' is parallel to segment AB. What is the length of segment BB'?
ella [17]

Answer:

A. 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that AB is parallel to A'B', therefore,

CB/CB' = CA/CA'

CB' = 7

CB = CB' + BB' = 7 + BB'

CA' = 6

CA = CA' + AA' = 6 + 3 = 9

Plug in the values

(7 + BB')/7 = 9/6

(7 + BB')/7 = 3/2

Cross multiply

2(7 + BB') = 7(3)

14 + 2BB' = 21

Subtract 14 from both sides

2BB' = 21 - 14

2BB' = 7

Divide both sides by 2

BB' = 7/2

BB' = 3.5
