Fun, geometry disguised as probability.
That's a pentagon, which we can view as 10 right triangles with legs a and s/2 (half of s) and hypotenuse r. So area of the pentagon is
P = 10 × (1/2) a (s/2) = 10 (1/2) (3.2) (4.7/2) = 37.6
The area of the circle is πr² so the circle area is
C = π (4²) = 50.265482
The white area is the difference, C-P, and the probability we seek is the fraction of the circle that's white, so (C-P)/C.
p = (C-P)/C =1-P/C = 1-37.6/50.265482 = 0.251971
Answer: 0.25
Higher than I would have guessed from the figure.
You'll have to multiply 0.7 by 120.
120*0.7 = n
n is the number that is 70% of 120
120 * 0.7 = 84
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
36 and -1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 = 3^2 = 9 * 4 = 36
y^-3 = (-2)^-3 = -1/8
Answer: 9 pieces
Explanation: Divide 8 by 7/8 to find the number of cut pieces and you'll get 9.
