Question

John is playing a gamr of darts. The probability that he throws a dart into the center of the dart board (bulls eyes) is 1/10. The probability tgat he throws rhe dart the dart into the dart into the 10 point ring is 3/10. What is the probability that he either hits a bullseye or scores 10 points?

Answer 1

2/5

Explanation:

Answer 2

`\bf\textbf{The probability that he either hits a bulls eye or scores 10 points = }(2)/(5)`

Explanation:

`\text{The probability that he throws a dart into the center of the dart board = }(1)/(10)`

`\text{The probability that he throws the dart into the 10 point ring = }(3)/(10)`

Now we need to find the probability that he either hits a bulls eye or scores 10 points.

The probability that he either hits a bulls eye or scores 10 points = Probability that he hits the bulls eye + Probability that he throws the dart into the 10 point ring

`\text{The probability that he either hits a bulls eye or scores 10 points = }(1)/(10)+(3)/(10)`

`\text{The probability that he either hits a bulls eye or scores 10 points = }(4)/(10)`

`\bf\textbf{The probability that he either hits a bulls eye or scores 10 points = }(2)/(5)`
