Answer:

00 to 99 are 100 numbers.

If you match the first number only, you win $200. The Probability for this is 1/100.

If you match the first two numbers and not the third, you win $5000. The Probability for this is 1/50.

If you match all three numbers, you win $100,000. The Probability for this is 3/100.

And, If you are a customer, You will think is fair for you.

But if you are the lottery tickets company, you will think is not fair for you.

It depends who you are.

the game isn't fair because 100,000/3=3333 1/3, so each number should be worth $3333.3333...... dollars but you can't really give 1/3 dollars so the game is impossible to be fair. Also, if you match the first two numbers you apparently get $5000. That's also not fair because each number is worth $50 dollars more than if you get the first number matched. So, the game isn't fair but it will be pretty much impossible to be fair.

12-2(n-1)=-18<br><br> aa help plzz
Luda [366]

Answer:

n=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

12−2(n−1)=−18

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

12−2(n−1)=−18

12+(−2)(n)+(−2)(−1)=−18(Distribute)

12+−2n+2=−18

(−2n)+(12+2)=−18(Combine Like Terms)

−2n+14=−18

−2n+14=−18

Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.

−2n+14−14=−18−14

−2n=−32

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

−2n /−2  =  −32 /−2

n=16

Which of the following statements are never true? Select all that apply. Three points are coplanar Two planes meet in exactly on
statuscvo [17]

Answer: Two planes meet in exactly one point

Two lines meet at exactly two points


Step-by-step explanation:

From the given statements there are two statements which are never true :-

1) Two planes meet in exactly one point .

Since when two line meets , they either meet at one point or infinite points (coincidence) , thus its impossible that they will meet at exactly two points.

2) Two lines meet at exactly two points

Since when two planes meet , the intersection of two plane always make a line not a point. Thus its impossible.

Luke has two summer jobs. During the week he works in the grocery store, and on the
TiliK225 [7]

Hello! First, let's get some important information:

Luke works in the:

  • week → grocery store → $16/hour
  • weekend → nursery → $22/hour

Now, let's analyze the questions:

<h3>a) How much does he earn if he works 5 hours at the grocery store and 8 hours at the nursery? </h3>

To find the amount he will receive, you must multiply the amount of 1 hour by the number of hours worked. Look:

\mathrm{Grocery\:Store}\\\\\$16 \cdot 5 \:\mathrm{hours}= \$80\\\$22 \cdot 8\:\mathrm{hours}=\$176

<h3>b) How much does he earn if he works g hours at the grocery store and n hours at the nursery?</h3>

\$16 \cdot \mathrm{g} \:\mathrm{hours}= \$16\cdot\mathrm{g}\\\$22 \cdot \mathrm{n}\:\mathrm{hours}=\$22\cdot\mathrm{n}

<h3>c) Total pay, 5 hours at the grocery store and 8 hours at the nursery:</h3>

You'll just have to just add the value in each of the jobs:

$80 + $176 = $256

<h3>d) Total pay, g hours at the grocery store and n hours at the nursery:</h3>

Adding the values of each job:

$16g + $22n

Hope this helps!
