5 0

Answer: 0.44

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's count the total number of four-digit numbers.

Let's think it as four empty slots:

_ _ _ _

In each slot, we can put a single digit.

In the first slot, we have 9 options {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

The zero is not an option here, because if there was a 0, this would be a 3 digit number, then the 0 can not be in the first slot.

For the second slot we have 10 options {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

for the third slot we have 10 options {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

for the fourth slot we have 10 options {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

The total number of combinations is equal to the product between the numbers of options for each slot, this means that we have:

Combinations = 9*10*10*10 = 9000

So there are 9000 different 4 digit numbers.

Now we want to find the probability of selecting a number at random that is equal or smaller than 5000.

Let's see the number of 4-digit numbers that are equal or smaller than 5000.

The smallest 4-digit number is 1000.

Then the number of numbers between 1000 and 5000 is:

5000 - 1000 = 4000

This means that there are 4000 4-digit numbers that are equal or smaller than 5000.

Now, the probability of selecting one of them at random is equal to the quotient between the number of 4-digit numbers that meet the condition (4000) and the total number of 4-digits (9000)

Then te probability is:

P = 4000/9000 = 4/9 = 0.44

The answer would be 30%

Explanation~

Well, you would have to add 27 and 23 first since, it says, “What percentage of the twelfth grade students have more than one college in mind” then, you’d have to figure out the percentage from there. And the percentage would be, 29.4117647059% of 170, round that to the nearest percent and it’s 30 I’m pretty sure.

The object of the game is to toss a beanbag in the circular hole of a 48-by-24-inch board. If the diameter of the circle is 6 in
larisa [96]

Answer:

Geometric probability of an object hitting a circular hole is 0.0245.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

A board of size 48 by 24 inch. There is a circular hole in the board having diameter 6 inches.

So,

Area of a board = 48 × 24 = 1152 square inches

And area of circular hole = π×r²   {where r = diameter/2  = 6 / 2 = 3 inches}

Area of circular hole = π×3² = 9π = 28.27 square inches

Now, we need to find the geometric probability of an object will hit the circle.

Geometric probability =  Area of circular hole / Area of board

Geometric probability = \frac{28.27}{1152}

Geometric probability = 0.0245

hence geometric probability of an object hitting a circular hole is 0.0245.

What is the answer for Two y square root 2( x +y) when x=1 and y =4
galina1969 [7]

Given expression  is   2 y  √ ( 2 (x + y )  .

Here x = 1 and y  = 4 .

We have    2 ( x +  y ) in square root in the given expression .

To find the answer of the given expression , we need to plug the given values

of x and y .

We plug  " 1 " in place of x  and  " 4 " in place of y .

Then we need to simplify the given expression  .

Please see the attachment .

On simplifying we get  8 multiply square root 10 .

Value of  square root 10 is 3.1623 .

Thus the value of the expression is  8 * √10  = 8 * 3.1623

                                                                          = 25.2982  .
