Explanation The density of a homogeneous lamina is defined to be its mass per unit area. Hence, the density, δ , of a homogeneous lamina of mass, M , and area, A , is given by δ = M / A . Therefore, the total mass of a homogeneous lamina of area, A , and density, δ , is δ = M / A . For Example, Consider the given lamina bounded by the graph of y = | x | and the line, y = 1 ; δ = 3 . Find the mass and the center of gravity of the lamina with density, δ . The mass of gravity of the lamina is M = δ A . First, find the area

A dart is thrown blindly at the target shown in the figure. The probability that the dart 1 2 3 4 lands in one of the four concentric regions is proportional to the area of the region. The radii of the circles in the figure are 1, 2, 3, and 4 units, respectively. Please note that region 2 consists of just the annular region from radius 1 to 2, and does not the include the enclosed circular region 1. Let (S, P) be a sample space modeling this situation. The set S consists of the four outcomes: hitting region 1, 2, 3, or 4. We can abbreviate that as S = {1, 2, 3, 4}. Please find P(1), P(2), P(3), and P(4).
