In the 2010 Winter Olympics, American Tim Burke aspired to win an Olympic medal in the biathlon, an event that combines cross-country skiing and target shooting. Unfortunately, he wasn’t as successful as he’d hoped. After the 20K race, where he only hit 15 of his 20 targets, he criticized himself, saying his shooting was way below his average of 85% on the season so far. What does it mean if we claim that Burke’s ability to hit a target is 85%?

If we claim that his ability to hit a target is 85% it means that he normally hits 17 out of 20 targets or 85 out of every 100 targets

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage is the mathematics term for a ratio of numbers expressed in terms multiple of 100 and denoted by the symbol %. The percentage value has no unit and is used to compare proportion of items or to serve as a visible guide to the relative proportion event occurrence or prevalence of a characteristics within a population.

In the question, we have, the athlete's hitting average given as 85% of targets which means when presented with 20 targets, he is expected to hit 85% of the targets which is 0.85 × 20 = 17 hits.

d) 30 units^2

area of rectangle = l × b

we know,

length = 10 unit

breadth = 3 unit

applying the formula,

= l × b

= 10 × 3

= 30 unit^2
