From a piece of tin in the shape of a square 6 inches on a side, the largest possible circle is cut out. What is the ratio of th

wel

Answer:

$\sf \dfrac{1}{4} \pi \quad or \quad \dfrac{7}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of a square is its side length.

The width of a circle is its diameter.

Therefore, the largest possible circle that can be cut out from a square is a circle whose diameter is equal in length to the side length of the square.

Formulas

$\sf \textsf{Area of a square}=s^2 \quad \textsf{(where s is the side length)}$

$\sf \textsf{Area of a circle}=\pi r^2 \quad \textsf{(where r is the radius)}$

$\sf \textsf{Radius of a circle}=\dfrac{1}{2}d \quad \textsf{(where d is the diameter)}$

If the diameter is equal to the side length of the square, then:
$\implies \sf r=\dfrac{1}{2}s$

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}\implies \sf Area\:of\:circle & = \sf \pi \left(\dfrac{s}{2}\right)^2\\& = \sf \pi \left(\dfrac{s^2}{4}\right)\\& = \sf \dfrac{1}{4}\pi s^2 \end{aligned}$

So the ratio of the area of the circle to the original square is:

$\begin{aligned}\textsf{area of circle} & :\textsf{area of square}\\\sf \dfrac{1}{4}\pi s^2 & : \sf s^2\\\sf \dfrac{1}{4}\pi & : 1\end{aligned}$

Given:

side length (s) = 6 in
radius (r) = 6 ÷ 2 = 3 in

$\implies \sf \textsf{Area of square}=6^2=36\:in^2$

$\implies \sf \textsf{Area of circle}=\pi \cdot 3^2=28\:in^2\:\:(nearest\:whole\:number)$

Ratio of circle to square:

$\implies \dfrac{28}{36}=\dfrac{7}{9}$

Answer:

19.35% probability that five will have completed four years of college

Step-by-step explanation:

For each individual chosen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have completed fourr years of college, or they have not. The probability of an adult completing four years of college is independent of any other adult. So the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
