Can anyone please help me with this question? : A target consists of two concentric circles. The larger circle has diameter 1m.

When a complete novice fires at the target, the probability of hitting the blue circle is the same as the probability of hitting the green region. Find the diameter of the blue circle.

We know that
if  <span>the probability of hitting the blue circle is the same as the probability of hitting the green region
then 
the area of the blue circle is equal to the area of the green region

Let
x----> diameter of the blue circle

area of the blue circle=pi*(x/2)</span>²----> (pi/4)*x² m²-----> equation 1

area of the green region=area of the larger circle-area of the blue circle
area of the green region=pi*(1/2)²-(pi/4)*x²
=(pi/4)-(pi/4)*x² m²----> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2
(pi/4)*x²=(pi/4)-(pi/4)*x² -----> divide by (pi/4)---> x²=1-x²
2x²=1-----> x²=1/2----> x=1/√2-----> x=√2/2 m

the diameter of the blue circle is √2/2 m

A city that had 40,000 trees started losing them at a rate of 10 percent per year because of urbanization.
goblinko [34]

Answer:

t = 13.1576  years

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation can be modeled as

P = Po.(1-r)^t

Where

t is the years transcurred

Po is the initial amount

r is the rate of change

Po = 40000

r = 10% equivalent to 0.1

Now

A quarter of the original amount

(1/4)*Po = Po.(1-r)^t

(1/4) = (0.9)^t

t = 13.1576

Bob Nale is the owner of Nale's Texaco GasTown. Bob would like to estimate the mean number of litres (L) of gasoline sold to his
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

a

  The point estimate of the population mean is  \= x  =  56

b

  The 80% confidence level is  50.57 <  \mu  < 61.43

c

  There is  80% confidence that the true population mean lies within the confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  18

   The  standard deviation is  \sigma  =  18 \ L

   The  sample mean is  \= x  =  56

Generally the point estimate of the population mean is equivalent to the sample mean whose value is  \= x  =  56

Given that the confidence interval is 80% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

      \alpha  =  100 -  80

      \alpha =  20 \%

      \alpha = 0.20

Next we obtain the critical value of  \frac{\alpha }{2} from the normal distribution table

 The  value is   Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } =  1.28

 Generally the margin of error is mathematically evaluated as

          E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }

=>       E =  1.28 * \frac{18 }{\sqrt{18} }

=>       E =  5.43

     Generally the 80% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

    \= x  - E  <  \mu  < \= x  + E

=>    56  - 5.43  <  \mu  < 56  + 5.43

=>   50.57 <  \mu  < 61.43

The  interpretation is that there is  80% confidence that the true population mean lies within the limit

Cylinder A has a volume of 360 cm3. Cylinder B has a base and height identical to that of cylinder B, but leans to the right in
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
I think the volume of cylinder B will be the same as that of cylinder A that is 360cm³
This is because the volume of the cylinder is dependent on the base and the perpendicular height, therefore, the slanting of the cylinder wont change its volume
