A dart hits the board. What is the probability

Mathematics

Elena L [17]2 years ago

3 0

Answer: The probability is 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability will be equal to the quotient between the area of region II, and the total area of the board (supposing that the probability of hitting in any place is equal)

The total area of the figure is equal to

Area = (15' + 35')*(8' + 20') = 50'*28' = 1400 in^2

Now, the area of region II is:

Region II = 20'*35' = 700

Then the probability is:

P = 700/1400 = 1/2 = 0.5

A container in the shape of this cuboid holds 2 litres of water.

zysi [14]

Given:

Volume of cuboid container = 2 litres

The container has a square base.

Its height is double the length of each edge on its base.

To find:

The height of the container.

Solution:

We know that,

1 litre = 1000 cubic cm

2 litre = 2000 cubic cm

Let x be the length of each edge on its base. Then the height of the container is:

$h=2x$

The volume of a cuboid is:

$V=l\times w\times h$

Where, l is length, w is width and h is height.

Putting $V=2000,\ l=x,\ w=x,\ h=2x$ , we get

$2000=x\times x\times 2x$

$2000=2x^3$

Divide both sides by 2.

$1000=x^3$

Taking cube root on both sides.

$\sqrt[3]{1000}=x$

$10=x$

Now, the height of the container is:

$h=2x$

$h=2(10)$

$h=20$

Therefore, the height of the container is 20 cm.

Answer:

Dear Laura Ramirez

Answer to your query is provided below

The ratio of triangle XYZ is 1:√3 :2.

Step-by-step explanation:

A 30-60-90 right triangle (literally pronounced "thirty sixty ninety") is a special type of right triangle where the three angles measure 30 degrees, 60 degrees, and 90 degrees. The triangle is significant because the sides exist in an easy-to-remember ratio: 1:√3 :2.
