Question

Jacob made 35% of his penalty kick attempts last season. He wants to design a simulation that can be used to estimate the probability that he will make his next penalty kick attempt this season. He wants to use a spinner divided into two sectors: success and failure. Find the central angle of the sector for success

Answer 1

126 degrees.

Explanation:

The number of degrees in a circular spinner = 360.

So the central angle for success will be 35% of 360 degrees.

This = 35 * 360 / 100

= 126.
