The next hole has a windmill as shown below. Gerald decides that he is never going to be able to time his shot right, so he deci
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

86.7%.

Explanation:

Considering the diagram, the path of the tip of the blades is a circle.

Hence, determine the circumference of the circle.

C = 2πr = 2π * 3 ft = 6π ft.

Then determine how long the blade edges are all together.

6 in * 5 blades = 30 inches

Therefore, to determine the fraction of the circumference of 30 inches, convert circumference to inches

6π ft * (12 in ÷ 1 ft) = 72π in.

Hence, the probability of Gerald’s randomly timed shot hitting a blade of the windmill

=> 30 ÷ 72π

=> 30 ÷ [72 * (22/7)]

= 13.3%.

Finally, the probability of his shot getting past the blades is then 100 – 13.3 = 86.7%.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

1. What happens in "Birches" by Robert Frost?

Robert Frost had written in his poem describing what he sees in bent birch trees. He said he thinks that they are bent by the boys swinging off of them, but he knows that they are bent by the ice storms. Robert had his own vision of the trees other than the real reason. He used his imagination. The theme of this poem was a way to escape rationality or the truth of the adult world. Like the boy is climbing the tree, a way towards heaven, a place where his imagination can be free, only for a moment.

How do the poem’s language, images, and symbols convey its themes to readers?There are a lot of language types in writing. Such as humor, Puns, structure and repetition, and Verse and Prose. The most suitable language for the “birches” would be blank verse. Blank verse is poems written with no rhyme. It is a sad story but it does have that twist that makes it have a more fascinating picture to it.

Do you prefer this type of modernist poem or more experimental ones? Why?

Yes, because it seems to me more real and not affected by unnecessary decorations.
