Complete question:
A bucket of candy contains 24 Jolly Ranchers, 18 Hershey Kisses, 12 packs of Smarties, and some Starburst. The probability of reaching in and pulling out a pack of Smarties is 1/6.How many Starburst are in the bucket?
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Give the following :
Number of jolly ranchers = 24
Number of Hershey kisses = 18
Number of smarties = 12
Number of Starburst = s
Probability of pulling out a smarties ; P(smarties) = 1/6
Probability = required outcomes / total possible outcomes
Required outcome = 12
Total possible outcomes = (24 + 18 + 12 + s) = 54 + s
P(smarties) = 12 / (54 + s)
1/6 = 12 / 54 + s
1 × (54 + s) = 12 × 6
54 + s = 72
s = 72 - 54
s = 18
Hence number of smarties = 18

Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the slope from 2 points, you do y2-y1/x2-x1
in this case, it would be -57-(-69)=12
and then x2-x1 is 17-14=3
so, the slope is 12/3 or 4
X time 0.8 (or 80 percent)= 15
so 15/0.8=X
18.75
1/2 + 1/4 =
2/4 + 1/4 =
3/4 <===
