Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of falling NOT in the shaded region is "area of white region" <em>divided by</em> "area of whole rectangle (big one)".
<u>Area of whole rectangle:</u>
Area of rectangle = length * width = 10 * 5 = 50
<u>Area of White Region:</u>
First, area of shaded region = length * width = 4 * 2 = 8
Now,
Area of white region = area of whole rectangle - area of shaded rectangle
Area of white region = 50 - 8 = 42
Hence, probability is 
0.84 = 84%
Answer choice D is right.
Answer:
It takes 0.145 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Distance = 8 miles
Speed = 55 miles per hour
