A) The probability the golfer got zero or one hole-in-one during a single game is between 10.01% and 11.38%.

B) The probability the golfer got exactly two holes-in-one during a single game is 8.57%.

C) The probability the golfer got six holes-in-one during a single game is close to 0%.

<h2 /><h2><u>How to determine probabilities</u></h2>

Since a miniature golf player sinks a hole-in-one about 12% of the time on any given hole and is going to play 8 games at 18 holes each, to determine A) what is the probability the golfer got zero or one hole -in-one during a single game, B) what is the probability the golfer got exactly two holes-in-one during a single game, and C) what is the probability the golfer got six holes-in-one during a single game , the following calculations must be performed:

  • 1 - 0.12 = 0.88
  • 0.88 ^ 17 = 0.1138
  • 0.88 ^ 18 = 0.1001

Therefore, the probability the golfer got zero or one hole-in-one during a single game is between 10.01% and 11.38%.

  • 0.88 ^ 18 - 0.12 ^ 2 = X
  • 0.0857 = X

Therefore, the probability the golfer got exactly two holes-in-one during a single game is 8.57%.

  • 0.12 ^ 6 x 0.88 ^ 12 = X
  • 0.0000000001 = X

Therefore, the probability the golfer got six holes-in-one during a single game is close to 0%.

What is the height of the cone if its volune is 8,138.88 feet CUBED? Use 3.14 for pi. (Radius of base of cone is 12 ft)
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

h = 54 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the volume of a cone is V = \frac{1}{3} × π × r² × h.

You have the volume, which is 8,138.88, and the radius of the base, which is 12.

V = 8,138.88

h = 12

π = 3.14

When you plug everything you know into the equation, you get:

V = \frac{1}{3} × 3.14 × r² × h.

8,138.88 = \frac{1}{3} × 3.14 × (12)² × h

After you multiply everything on the right side, you come out with:

8,138.88 = 150.72 × h

To find h, you can divide each side by 150.72.

8,138.88 ÷ 150.72 = 54 feet!

Find the average of these numbers. 23, 24, 27, 25, 26, 23, 21, 32, 29, 30
Pavel [41]

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add all the numbers together

23 + 24 + 27 + 25 + 26 + 23 + 21+ 32 + 29 + 30= 260

Then divide by the number of terms there are, in this case 10

260/10= 26

I have 7 hundreds blocks, 5 tens blocks, and 8 ones blocks. I use my blocks to model two 3-digit numbers. What could my two numb
lawyer [7]
There 7 blocks of hundreds which means each such block is equivalent to 100.
There are 5 blocks of tens, which means each such block is equivalent to 10.
There are 8 blocks of ones, which means each such block is equivalent to 1.

The total of these blocks will be = 7(100) + 5(10) + 8(10) = 758

We can make several two 3-digit numbers from these blocks. An example is listed below:

Example:
Using 3 hundred block, 2 tens blocks and 4 ones block to make one number and remaining blocks to make the other number. The remaining blocks will be 4 hundred blocks, 3 tens blocks and 4 ones blocks
The two numbers we will make in this case are:

1st number = 3(100) + 2(10) + 4(1) = 324
2nd number = 4(100) + 3(10) + 4(1) = 434

The sum of these two numbers is  = 324 + 434 = 758
i.e. equal to the original sum of all blocks.

This way changing the number of blocks in each place value, different 3 digit numbers can be generated.
