Who knows geometry/algebra help me on this

Heh. OK, well in this case they tell you that the probability of him landing at any one point on the field is equal, so if you were to draw a line down the center of the field, what would the probability of him landing on one side of the line be?

Well he can only touch down within the playing field, which includes the square, so there’s a 100% chance that he’ll land within that area. Knowing that, you have to find out how much of a chance he has of landing specifically within the area of that square.

I didn’t give her an answer. How could I be wrong?

We can’t give you the answer, but we can try to help you understand the question.

50%?

Right. The same principle applies here, only the box in this case isn’t equal to half the field.

well duh people I just want someone to help me out here im not asking for an answer or anything like that!

well I have a problem with probabilities..so yea.

this is not a homework site. I will not give you the answer even tho I already know it and cthulhu is wrong. just a hint.figure it out yourself!

so then what does that mean??

What have you got so far, and where are you stuck?
