Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)
(06.04 MC)

The figure below shows a shaded rectangular region inside a large rectangle:

A rectangle of length 10 units and width 5 units is shown. Inside this rectangle is another rectangle of length 6 units and width 3 units placed symmetrically inside the larger rectangle. The smaller rectangle is shaded gray.

What is the probability that a point chosen inside the large rectangle is not in the shaded region?

18%
36%
42%
64%

Answer 1

Oky so first, we need to find the area of both rectangles

Answer 2

6 x 3 = 18

10 x 5 = 50

Answer 3

So the area between the two rectangles between the two is 29 square units

Answer 4

So lets discover the probability of the point that is picked is not in the shaded rectangle that is the smaller rectangle, so that means we have to find the probability of the point is choosen in the area between the two rectangles .

Answer 5

so 18/50? (which is 36%)

Answer 6

Yes!

Answer 7

thanks

Answer 8

Ofc ofc.
