Answer:

1. Yes, 1 position backwards

2. Yes, a free blueberry muffin and a free slice of carrot cake

b. Yes

3. 19 prizes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given conditions for winning a prize are as follows;

The prize that every 5th customer gets = A free bagel

The prize that every 9th customer gets = A free blueberry muffin

The prize that every 12th customer gets = A free slice of carrot cake

Therefore, the prizes will go to the 5th, 9th, 10th, 12th, 15th, 18th, 20th, 24th, 25th, 27th, 30th, 35th, 36th, 40th, 45th, 48th, and 50th positon customers

1. Diego being 23rd is right for thinking that he should get farther back in line in order to get a prize

He should get one position behind to 24th position

The reason is because prizes will be given to every 12th customer, and the 24th customer is the second 12th customer

2. Yes Jada will get a price as her position corresponds to the consecutive 9th and 12th customers position

Jada will get a free blueberry muffin and a free slice of carrot cake

b. It is possible for Jada to get more than one prize

This is so because her position coincides with the consecutive 9th and 12th customers position

3. The number prizes that Lin's uncle gives away are;

5th, 9th, 10th, 12th, 15th, 18th, 20th, 24th, 25th, 27th, 30th, 35th, 36th, 40th, 45th, 48th, and 50th = 17 prizes

including 1 extra prize each for the 36th and 45th customers which gives a total of 19 prizes.
