You can factorize to simplify the expression
The answer would be,

Hope this helped

In this problem we need to find the value of a and b. So given that t<span>he function should be in the form f(n) = an + b and we know each value of n, then out goal is to find a and b.
For getting this purpose, we need to find a system of two equations (given that we have two unknown variables)
Therefore:
(1) f(0) = a(1) + b = 18
</span>∴ a + b = 18
<span>
(2) f(1) = a(2) + b = 24
</span>∴ 2a + b = 24<span>
Solving for a and b we have:
a = 6
b = 12
Finally:
f(n) = 6n + 12</span>
Option B. 12/ 125 is the answer.
Explanation
Total umber of sour ball candies = 50
Number of lemon candies = 12
Hence the probability to get a lemon candy is = 12/50
Number of cherry sour balls = 20
So, the probability to get a cherry sour ball = 20/50
So, to get the joint probability for a random selection to either get a lemon or cherry candy, we will multiply both the probabilities.

= 
M= 33
Since degrees equal with the other one across from them.
N= 57
The reason why is because a right angle equals 90 degrees and 90-33 is 57.
Hope I helped you :-)
