The probability of “landing” in the shaded region to the nearest hundredth is equal to 0.79 or 79.0%.
<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>First of all, we would determine the area of the given geometric shapes.
For the square, we have:
Mathematically, the area of a square can be calculated by using this formula;
Area = x²
Area = 50²
Area = 2500 ft².
For the circle, we have:
Mathematically, the area of a circle can be calculated by using this formula;
Area = πd²/4
Area = (3.142 × 50²)/4
Area = 1,963.75 ft².
Now, we can determine the probability as follows:
Probability = 1963.75/2500
Probability = 0.79 or 79.0%.
<h3>When the side length is 40 ft.</h3>Area = x²
Area = 40²
Area = 1600 ft².
For the circle, we have:
Area = πd²/4
Area = (3.142 × 40²)/4
Area = 1256.8 ft².
Probability = 1256.8/1600
Probability = 0.79 or 79.0%.
