She takes 2 candies, and must get 1 sweet and one sour.

The first candy must be sweet followed by a candy that is sour or the first must be sour followed by a sweet one.

Probability of first candy being sweet: p(first sweet) = 4/6

Probability of second candy being sour: p(second sour) = 2/5

Combined probability: 4/6 * 2/5 = 8/30

Probability of first candy being sour: p(first sour) = 2/6

Probability of second candy being sweet: p(second sweet) = 4/5

Combined probability: 2/6 * 4/5 = 8/30

Add the two probabilities: 8/30 + 8/30 = 16/30 = 8/15

Answer: 8/15

The base of a cone shaped glass is 12 inches and it is 18 inches tall. You
Damm [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step expla

To find the volume of a cone, use the equation: V = 1/3Bh.

In this equation, V is the volume, B is the base, and h is the height.

We are given that the base is 12 inches, and the height is 18 inches. With those necessary values, we can substitute those values, and calculate it.

V = 1/3(12)(18)

V = 4(18)

V = 72.0

Therefore, the volume of this glass is 72.0 cubic inches.

Hey there,
20x ^ 2 = 256 + 128x
400x = 256 + 128x
400x - 128x = 256
